Musical Messages

Your fingers caress the black and white keys;

rhythms of life cradled between your hands

fill the universe with stars. They light candles

in my mind as Earth and Sky and Sea

all merge within the music of your love.

Blue waters of awareness circle round

and oceans create life from out its depths.

The heavens spin with stars and melody

which nourishes the Universal Song,

until its spark ignites a wonder in us all.

Contrasts are the spice of life

Plain English is a communication tool people use in many places around the world. As an English person born and bred, I felt compelled (for fun) to dig out this rather astonishing snippet that I created way back in 2009, when a partaker of Fridge Soup listed (in a random order) all the strange-looking words.  My verse does make sense, once you hit a dictionary! :-)

Words, words, words...

A daysypigal hound with a dose of cynanthropy,

I'm still a romantic inclined to philosophy. 

I'm not furfuraceous or given to ticks, 

but ichthyomancy is one of my tricks, 

as I'm geniculate, pre omphaloskepsis - 

I guess folks may wonder what the heck that is?

I am known for philanthropy rather than love;

I pray any qualtagh, who's sent from above, 

will be no snollygoster, but a good friend of mine,

otherwise why are they wasting my time?
