To Write 29 Words

I have to write to truthfully say what I think. I must think extremely hard to write. If I cannot think, I cannot write. To think is divine. To write is even better. Let me think so I can write with style. Before I write with style I have to think. If you want me to write with style, be very quiet. 1) I 2) Have 3) To 4) Write 5) Truthfully 6) Say 7) What 8) Think 9) Must 10) Extremely 11) Hard 12) If 13) Cannot 14) Is 15) Divine 16) Even 17) Better 18) Let 19) So 20) Can 21) With 22) Style 23) Before 24) You 25) Want 26) Me 27) Be 28) Very 29) Quiet Copyright © 2010 By Caryl S.
