words are power
words are magic

just think, once upon a time, wordplay and puns
were the only form of entertainment

a double entendre is always fun too

people used to think very long before speaking, sometimes days
and then speak in poetry or song
how cool

words can do anything
they call tell someone they are loved or they can start a war
they can share wisdom, they can heal

this is fun...

Yes! To understand the power of words. I have always been fascinated with words as well. I started writing poetry in grade school and that led me to songwriting in later years.

The Quakers still choose their words so carefully that they sometimes have meetings where no one speaks at all.

"i-magi-nation - a nation of magicians" I love that one!

Thanks for the link. I will check it out.
