Could I engage you in a metaphor?
Or create some acronyms for you?
Devise you anagrams by the score?
Interest you in some similes new?
I like to write in pretty pink pentangles
Polka-dotted points of purple perfection
Absurd-word concoctions of tongue-tangles
Or a wonderfully-woven verbal confection
love this...feast for someone who loves the written word..!
ReplyDeleteFeed me a box of candies now, after that you owe it to me. Yummy wording!
ReplyDeleteI'll take a new simile, please :) Enjoyed perusing your poetic wares!
ReplyDeleteA delightful concoction of word images
