Braided customers build castle bulkworks,
barter collections
borrow corked bottles, bundle containers
bilious casanovas barter costly bedouin camels
bridle caravans, beseech captains between cavernous
balmy coasts,
boasting buxom concubines, beautiful coconut beaches...
buried center... brittle crabs breech chalk
buttressed cays
chaperoned babes complain bitterly,conches blare
commotion breaks, buzzards circle
battered crumbs burn crisp.

Honestly Sven only to check the spelling, I've been a language prof for over 25 years, by now I'd say I have a good store of words at my command

Floria,

I would have like to allow more freedom of a BC/CB composition but I held out except for a couple of cases. I find this stimulating

Have a great weekend, lets enjoy the final snow falls.

Happy TGIF! And this is fantastic! Did Sven say we can't use a dictionary?! *just kidding* This is amazing...You're just one of the reasons I'm proud to be Canadian!
