Searching for words

nuna

Just one word a day
I will have become richer by next winter
with words to cheer, challenge and amuse
all attention at my disposal

shadows of more elusive words taunt me of their existence
the sparkle in my eyes and parting lips
expressions cherished inside but never spoken

it is my fondest wish, urgent desire -
to channel consciousness 
But I am contained in a speechless pressure cooker
take off the lid or witness my spontaneous combustion

    Nuna, the words won't do justice to this fine written piece. Be blessed!
