Wandering Words


Alas for me, I’m at a loss.

Wandering words have waddled away ~ taken my sense of humour with them!

Wobbly words poked their faces from nooks, crannies and cramped corners of my spent brain!

Wonderful words of two, or four or maybe six have winked at 
each other and shyly held hands, only to skip away down the road before I’ve time to line them up in poem, story or song.

What shall I do when at a loss?
Put my fingers on the keys and a few wayfaring words have set themselves down to rest.

“This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put 
one word after another until it’s done.  It’s that easy, and that hard.”
~ Neil Gaiman
