Perception, Our Senses, and Us!

It's all about perspective really. It's about how things seem when we see them, hear them, taste them, feel them, or smell them. Since we've been writing with perception and our senses,, let's keep going!

Let's unleash our imaginations and dazzle our papers with words and thoughts that are free from stress or purpose!

Fantasize and be unconventional! Have fun while you write... be spontaneous.

Write about how green smells or spaghetti sounds or how a book tastes. Write about what a bell feels like or how a stomach ache looks.

This kind of activity reminds us how important our senses are when it comes to writing. It reminds us of the power of words and the wonder of language. It's all about perspective once again!

I don't know about your stomach ache, but mine looks like a tremendous thunder storm. It rumbles through the clouds as they get darker and darker. It flashes with lightening that knocks out power lines. Then from the storm comes the downpour of torrential rain that floods the earth until it is weak and eroded.

YOUR TURN!

Each and every word inside a book has its own unique and distinct flavor. The pages are the plates on which each well-seasoned sentence waits to be chewed, mulled over, swallowed, then savored. Digestion is so pleasant, as yet another book is throughly enjoyed!

Your book tastes really good!

A bell feels like my heart
when it trembled

A bell feels like tingling
in my toes when I am happy

A bell feels like a deep sigh
when I close my eyes

I feel your bell!

Puppies look like a snowfall of toilet paper and a herd of tiny fairy horses galloping down the hall!
