Chew For Life by Mr. S

when I was a baby
mother, father
gave me
chew books

books
to chew on

books
to teeth on

books
to drool on

and now
I am an insatiable reader

I dine daily
I gorge in libraries and bookshops
I am a connoisseur of fine print

and at night
when I dream
I still drool a little

Hello Students! Who can find out what the word “insatiable” means?
