Pleasure of Words

How curious it is a simple word
Chimes a memory with one syllable heard

Glorious pairings smoothly roll off the tongue
Tease the lips, oh, air from lungs

Notes of a sentence play a true melody
Chords together, a balanced harmony

Limitless expressions  for my soul to capture
The sheer pleasure to pronounce : Euphoria, Bliss, and Rapture
