Dressing Up

I try on words
Like hats and shoes
To see which look
Best fits my muse.

I try on the words, Like jewelery, To be more beautiful, To feel pride of me.

Congratulations on your POTD win. "So Cute" Maybe I should look in my closet for words. One word can make a big difference. Enjoy your win and day..............

Choosing the right words really is like trying on shoes and clothing. Sometimes the discards pile up, just like shoe boxes. Congratulations on potd, Michelle.
