For the Love of Words

For the love of words Deep in love with words, I keep digging through the day, Although words fail me, Still can't help reverberate, I am a structured poem ! Tanka- 5/7/5/7/7 Written September 29th, 2014 For contest 'For the love of words' by Pendleton Arkwright

Love this tanka! My favorite lines the first one and the third one Dr.Upma. I can relate so much to it. I am in love with words and my dictionaries and then books I can never get enough of them. Always digging for new ones and all the millions to know. Lol...I wish you good luck in this contest! Great tanka in all forms! I give you a 7! Cheers! Have a lovely weekend! Love and light! xxxx D.
