WTF burning bright with pondering ink. Graceful swans or blackbirds skedaddling across the vast and empty space. The think kerplunking into cavernous link. The quill flying…descriptives diving onto the writer’s canvas…surviving. WTF, loud and clear, dear John… the calligraphic rend of relationship… The salutation is a haunting paragon. Parisian-perfumed paper is withdrawn. The ebony of the crow’s feather, fitting. His abdominals are eternally splitting. WTF, wet with mascara tears. Joy at the indoctrination of its mirth, bearing personalities of a girl and boy. To induce was another cousin’s ploy - joining in on the birth experience fun, flexing his muscles, nearly triplets spun. WTF, wading in pools of grace, prayerful rest of folded hands - serenity glides over vellum. The ink, so gentle, melodic, transfigured, blessed. Saint’s swan lyrics - God’s glory expressed. Whisper of angels, feathers like baby’s-breath. Resurrected quill in pall of Christ’s death.

Most excellent choices of words used my good friend. All stanza's great but the first and the last stanza are so superbly inked! A fav-a jewel. God bless.
