Gone In a Flash

Of all of the twists and turns, that writing can take; the realms, it can build and the beings, a writer creates. The travels in space and universes to behold; dark places and spaces, with things lurking at night and the magic and miracles; of imagination’s flight. All the places, one can go; within the land of words, oh, how one can grow. They could end up, being dumped from memory, as garbage in and garbage out; is dumped from a computer; when no dictionary, is around. So, think on these things, my literary friends; although it’s hard to admit, that a dictionary, is just a book. In all of your writing life, how often have you had, to take a second look.

You tell it like it is, ML! I have several dictionaries, also a rhyming one and a thesaurus. Also, I have quote books. I like reading what other people have written on different subjects. Blessings, Darlene
