P a R a L L E L

I love spelling the word parallel out loud.
Try it. P A R A L L E L
Again, slowly at first P A R A 
Now a little faster L L E L
P A R A L L E L
I love it. 
P A R A L L E L
It sings, 
It is a song
It has rhythm, rhyme. 
It swings.
It is a dance in eight syllables that says, ‘I love you.’
Forget about the meaning; spelling has no meaning.
P A R A L L E L
It should have a colour, a smell, a touch but no meaning.
I learned it and loved it as a child and I love it today.  
Spelling P A R A L L E L is a simple joy. 
So, once more from the top 
And with feeling,
P A R A L L E L
