On a train in a small town called Molching.
Death came knocking.
When stepping out of the train
Liesel felt nothing but pain
Until one day her saving grace came
It came in a form no one expected
A form some may have even rejected
And then she knew with just a look
Someday she would learn to read this book.
But not by herself, not at all
But with the help of someone she believed knew it all.
His name was Hans he taught her skills
Such as reading and writing
It was all so exciting
But a boy named Rudy taught her more
He taught her love and how to adore
Her passion was reading she knew from the start
And even through death they would not part.
For death saved her finished book
And she had one last look
A look at the book that saved her from trouble
A look at the book that was found in the rubble
When she needed it most the book was there
To guide her through all the scare
And for the last time the book guided her through another journey
This time she glided along on a gurney
But she was not scared
She had lived through much worse
She was ready to rest
She had survived life’s great test
Very Nice
