Disclaimer: I don't own the poem or quote.

I walk along the shoreline,

Holding pebbles to the light.

Every one is beautiful,

Every one is right.

I stuff my bulging pockets with,

Small treasures from the rolling sea.

Two places make me feel so rich,

The ocean and the library.

The worth of a book is to be measured by what you can carry away from it. -James Bryce
