Notice of absence from Neville
If I get the thumbs up tomorrow from my Doc, I hope to be in Miami on Friday for three days before jumping ship and spending three weeks sailing around South America .. Sheesh, what we do to try n get a touch of inspiration eh' .. Take care while I'm away & please forgive any delay in my going quiet for a while .. Hope to return feeling better than I do write at this moment .. AGT's Neville 😎👍

Appetite for Words
She had such
An appetite for words
Her hunger
Knew no bounds
I used to call her

~Laura~
so good to hear.. I share your passion.. many thanks indeed Laura
My pleasure!
Those words in our lives are so important to many of us.
yes, they are indeed
I think I have this relentless appetite for words...
it seems you are insatiable, take as many as you like
I'm not sure I should say this here in the open but I have this fantasy of a poet writing his words on my body. But then that may be considered a collsborstion of some sort?
If I delete this will you still get points?
I doubt it.. nice thought tho
Oh I'll leave it then... Maybe a poet may oblige me one day. I think I'd like a proper fountain pen...
Or maybe I could just lend him my lipstick ...
you could lend him mine..
Your lipstick or fountain pen?
lipstick

I like this! My best friend calls me a 'walking talking encyclopedia' and this reminds me of that!
thank you for enjoying these words, Neville
