│ To work in a bookstore    ║ Customers wander up one │
│ is such a treat. Just         ║ aisle, then down,                │
│ think of the authors          ║ hoping to find that one       │
│ you may chance to meet!║ jewel for their crown.          │
│                                          ║                                           │
│ Imagine, my friend, if       ║ Advice and suggestions     │
│ Patterson, Box, Roberts   ║ are yours to dispense,       │
│ or Rice, dropped in to       ║ especially when able to     │
│ see you? Oh, how nice!   ║ save them some cents.      │
│                                          ║                                            │
│ The newest of books are  ║ Bindings of glue, or            │
│ hid in the back and, as     ║ finest old leather,                │
│ an employee, you get      ║ bookstores are great,          │
│ first crack!                        ║ no matter the weather!        │
