There's a Metaphor Awaits You

Sharpen those swords of cerebral wit Thrust deep for just the right word Great writing's never blurred There's a metaphor awaits you the only one that'll ever do To probe and pierce the minds with whom you ~ connections find

When Jack Ellison is 'speechless,' I know I must have written something out of the ordinary! Thanks for the compliment, Jack. Cheers, gw

The metaphors await. Ah, so. I find mine most often behind the minute hand at 3A.M. Grumble as I may, I acquiesce and keep a notebook and pen under the bed or there'll be no more sleep tonight! Lizzy

Good for you, Lizzy. I have the same problem and solution. Keep the notepad near and write stuff down at night... But do I ever implement this?! ... lol.

Metaphors and I are passing strangers. I don’t do metaphors because I missed that boat, so thanks for shining a light on the subject. Like the write, Gershon. Terry
