LOVE AFAIR 10 June 2011 I am in love with words – passionately, tenderly, intimately. They depict the ambiance I inhale, imbibe, spew, radiate. They twang the harp-strings of my soul. They creep into every corner of my thinking and spread like smiles in the sun – strange phrase “in the sun” when the sun is ninety-three million miles away (on average accounting for perihelion and aphelion) but such is the power and delight and inconsistency of words. I will adore and revere you forever, Words. Owl |

And the words adore you, yes it is really a Love Affair. Good for you and good for us! Love your imagery here. Verba volant scripta manent ... and how beautifully they do both things. Very very nice. Love, Margherita |

Smiles and thanks, Margherita for your kind words. Yes, it is a pity that so much of the spoken word is lost, but sometimes it is a good thing! LOL. Owl |

Damn! Wish I'd've said that. I have, but not as eloquently. ~ Those are my principles, and if you don't like them ... well, I have others. ~ |

... and, you are indeed a 'wordsmith' divine! [as one who tries to 'word paint' the world in cascading images and bright, delicious colors and give a 'voice' to Nature ... I know EXACTLY what you mean!] this is a grand-fine 'penning' !! |

I already knew that. See how perceptive I am? And perspicacious, too. It's patently obvious that words have you and will never let you go. And this is a good thing. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Giggles, Jerry and thanks – but don’t understimate your own eloquence! Thank you Bruce for your “grand-fine” words. You don’t just try to do all those wonderful things. You do them as well! And, yes, I know you know exactly what I mean. Smiles. Nan, you honour me! And your tone is delightful – I enjoyed it very much! Smiles and giggles! Owl |
