"Of Modern Books" by Carolyn Wells
A pantoum is a Malay verse form consisting of an indefinite number of quatrains with the second and fourth lines of each quatrain repeated as the first and third lines of the following one. "Of making many books there is no end" (Ecclesiastes 12:12, King James Version). So reads the first line of the poem "Of Modern Books" by Carolyn Wells. That poem is a humorous pantoum about reading and books. To read that poem, that pantoum, click here.
