WORDS

WORDS

oh yes
i love words
written...spoken
heard
don't know prose
from verse
phonetically
cursed
but from
time to time
write such a
good line
blow my
own mind
yes i love
semantics
wax poetic
and pedantic
words shallow
and deep
flowing river
trickling creek
metaphors
rhymes and puns
see how
they're strung
linked
expression
diamonds
and gems
on paper
from pen
queen of
colloquial
words one
syllable
words to
reveal
keeping things
real
oh yes
i love words
written...spoken
heard
would go
on and on
but my
limited lexicon
is in need
of expansion
