Wor(l)ds
It is quite amazing, this form of communicating, learning of things and of each other through writing and prose – reading the lines, between the lines.
The word wordfeelings is a new word from Philosophy Lee and I love it.
Wor(l)ds belongs to the following groups:
! Creative Writing & Poetry !, "Poetry and Beautiful Women" , All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Art For The World, Masterpieces: Literary Workshop, Something To Say, Vibration in Art and Verse - VAVoom! and WMGWords over the seas, first come in ripples and then in breeze
from distant worlds where day is night,
the moon glowing, when the sun shines bright
where thousands of miles seem strangely near,
where unknown people become warmly dear
and words tell tales and subtly reveal
the tears, the joys and all else real
words console the aching soul,
emotions crossing oceans
words of wise, asking questions of whys
distance becomes an instance
a new world born of same people of old
new lines written of old stories told
new attitudes from old thoughts known
new ideas from old ones grown
words of teaching
words reaching
words that groove
words that move
words that rhyme
words of time
If a picture paints a thousand words
then a word writes a thousand wordfeelings
and hence I come to know of thee
stranger friends across the sea.

Glad you could feel it and thanks for the favourite. This site is truly something extraordinary, so many works to read, from many different (types of) people. In contemplating, outside in the rain, I thought of Linaji’s words and well, I realised there’s something very important I missed. words are sharing, words are caring. :)
