Don't you just love when two words are put together ... that aren't ever used together? I find myself stopping to read over ... say over unusual word choices. I 'pure' love ... words.
I don't make any claims to being an expert on anything at all ... but, I do ... know when I see words that fascinate me ... play 'music' to me ... show colors to me. Words ... beautiful words ... can say so much.
When online, I find myself smiling when I see words put together to name domains, websites, so on. Wow ... the imagination! I love it!
Two unrelated words become one together ... become special. It creates imagery in one's mind ... colors, music, imagination is sparked just as a fire is started by ... striking a match. Candles burn, logs burn on the fireplace ... you get it ... yes, that's what I mean.
I wonder if words affect you the way they affect me. They would have to ... to a degree. Words ... are music ... our mouths play them all the time. Well ... that doesn't mean everyone can ... sing! We know ... I can't.
I always said that if I could sing ... I'd be something else! :) I feel music deeply. I never could go dancing without moving to it ... I couldn't sit still.
Skip understands exactly what I mean ... try sitting still to your favorite music that has a good beat ... something, somewhere in or outside of you ... is going to keep rhythm! It 'hurts' to stay still.
Let's see what I can think of on the spur of the moment ... putting some words together. See what your mind conjures up when reading them ...
Grittyglass ... dreamrays ... fairclouds ... fairystars ... moonsweat ... sunsparks ... restbunny ... flowerhopper ... diamondfist ... you get the picture ... does your imagination kick in, making you see images, hear sounds?
Words are wonderful. I'm so happy I know a lot of them so, I can write! I 'pure' love words ... words, beautiful words!

You got me! I was trying to do some imagining!! Music with a good beat----we still have that in common. I can't be still either----even at my age! Love, Ms. Nancy
