Enjoy and say ahhhhh ...

Writing

I love a beautiful sentence, a nice piece of prose, a turn of phrase. Sometimes it only takes a word or two to hook people into a place, a time, an emotion. Such words are powerful and should be used with respect and deference. Some words are so freighted with association that they can only be used with extreme respect.

Winter

A phrase I used a long time ago in a poem I wrote, and one I've always loved was when I was talking about a summer storm in the city; a storm that comes and goes almost as fast. The phrase 'left-over lightening' speaks to the flashes of receding lightning bolts that remain long after the rain and wind has gone. 

Musings.
