Heart and Grit

Words have Wings

Communication Capers

13 Nov

Words are birds
     of a feather; they
     tether together
by mutual attraction  
     and chemical reaction.

Word flocks invent sentences,
     each with scent essences;
     sweet scents source resonance,
while scent tenseness courts menace.

Communication murmurations
     may summon the sun,
or feast like buzzards
     on rot and division.

Your speech far-reaches;
it teaches and preaches.
     Shapes your senses

and sharpens intenseness; your
     verbs may hurl vipers or virtues.      

Braid your strands of syntax
     to sympathize synapses,
harness harmonies charmingly …

Offer soothing words like lemon curds.

If something I’ve written touches a chord in you, I invite you to explore it with me.
