An Unusual Story
Word Play
I'm creating a new story
out of words laying around.
Intentional and creatively
I'll mix them with the others I have found.
To form a different meaning
from the sentences -where they came.
Into an action or a question
maybe my characters first name.
Someone dropped the word unusual
so I picked it up to say-
They sky is a different color, it's a bit unusual, that way
Maybe I'll use the phrase, not normal
well, I mean, who am I to say?
What is the definition of, not normal, anyway?
It's all in your perspective,
most don't see these things the same.
We mix our words trying to impress
you see, it's all a verbal game.
I hope you find some humor in this rare story
I create.
Some words may have come from you
it's really difficult to say.
I may linger near your stories
to see if there are words you leave behind.
And thank you in advance
for being so very kind.
