Word Momentum
One word, once heard, suggests the next
invites companions to a
harmonious tale
each word, being a symbol
carries a whole story
and penetrates the veil
when words play together
they dance, transforming
into a different life to live
as they reach for the stars
you can hear whole symphonies
and parallel universes are created.

Beliefs coming together to form realities in universes formed by the coming together of words.
Awesome.

Thank you, and for the RL too. At half-way through the NaPoWriMo I'm flagging a bit; your comments have re-energised me.

Thank you Ahavati for your enthusiastic response - and RL. I'm gathering strength again from the positive responses. That's what I call 'community support'.

Wow... simply amazing!
The first stanza drew me in immediately... I like it when that happens!
The rest... equally beautiful, love the idea of dancing words :-)

Thank you Duende. Words - Sound - Light - Movement ... it's all there somewhere in the universe - or maybe the universe is made up of them.

Hi Mel, glad you you found it inspiring. The positive responses have been a good boost for me at the half-way point of NaPoWriMo. Keep going too, sister!

I absolutely love this
I love how your mind works and how this reminds me just how important words are
I think too often people forget the impact and power behind the words they speak, write, etc.

I've only just seen your comment, Beth - and thank you. Words can both heal and destroy a life (especially put-down words spoken to a child)
