Words......

......are strung together like beads and Rattle in my head..... ;)

I love words
I love how they feel as they escape my mouth
The sensation of how they form as I speak
They can tickle or tangle my tongue
I love how they appear to race as I type
And the way they grow and flower on the page
Popping up like daisies in the sun
Words can do things all on their own
When I write or think
They can grow into a story or rhyme
That was never there before
Dancing together in pleasing form
Surprising me in their chosen friends
Seemingly unbidden by me
To tell a tale I did not know
Or was hiding in me -
Somewhere -
Only they know -
Tentatively
They twine and grow
Weaving with each other
Draping across the page
In glorious dripping garlands
An extravaganza
Of wonderful beautiful words
