Mucking about with words

-->
Mucking about with words[1]

Its playtime,
Time to dip into the box
Inspecting, rejecting and selecting
Seeking the right one for the spot.

But these are not tools for fools, nor toys for the boys (and girls),
Or, maybe the best toys and tools of all.

Wonderful words,
Cajoling, bemusing, caressing, carousing and more.
Words that transport to far off places and worlds beyond time and space.
Words that beckon, berate, bemuse and bestride the universe.

Nouns, verbs, adverbs and more,
Syntactically diced, marinated, stir-fried and baked to perfection,
Prepositions, conjunctions, disjunctions blending part to part,
Master Chef for the mind.
