In 1954 The Malvern Bookshop opened it`s door,
Inviting all in to browse and explore.
Like taking a step back in time; beyond the door,
Books on shelves from ceiling to floor.
Poetry books from Romance to War,
So many books I`ve carried out the door.

I only popped in for to take a look,
Never contemplating on buying a book.
"But that old book" was just the start,
"That old Poetry book" captured my heart.
So I thank "The Malvern Bookshop"
For just a look.
