I’m amazed by the words you come up with – every day! I must look back and see how long you’ve been doing this for. It’s an extraordinary feat! Brilliant. And thanks.
Thanks gamarand! It has been merely a month since I decided to play with words in a public forum such as this; however, I have always been drawn to the esoteric side of language. This is more for me than anything but I certainly enjoy the appreciation of others sharing the path of literary admiration.
