The Beauty of the Written Word

There is a beauty in the written word When not so much of it is spoken The verbiage lingers in my mind Like the taste of a fine wine The words pass before my eyes Floating… Floating… Floating… Like ethereal clouds across the skies And can bring tears unto my eyes Like a joy so unrevealed. There is a meaning in some words That can cause my heart to break Or cause my spirit to elate Words can cause your heart to pound As I ponder the mental sounds Reverberating in my chest It gives my soul unrest It moves a feeling in my breast Of the beauty Of written words I will never grow weary.
