A Word a Sentence

A page is nothing without a word. Urge the verb. UNHOOK THE LATCH. Set the tenses ABLAZE. Get the NERVE. TO OBSERVE. THE FURY OF THE FLURRY. Allow THE MINGLE. Build the FENCES THAT CONNECT THE SENSES. BREAKDOWN BUILD SETS OF WORDS. SEND TENSES TO SENTENCES. HENCE COMMANDING AND STRIKING AFFAIRS OF IDEAS. ABOVE ALL FEED THE MOTION WHICH PRODUCES THE URGE, WITH FUEL. A WORD.

Love it! The power of the word -- spoken and unspoken . . . loved the formatting of the words and sentences -- added a nice tension and a sense of action!! word action!!

I enjoyed your light poetry. So true, that it does take words to fill a page. And the right words form a poem. Christmas Blessings, Darlen

Thank you Darlene. I was worried initially. I didn't know if anyone would understand it. HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
