What is the aim or goal of your writing:
2nd ed. says, " I love rhythm, music and words, rhythm is a need so basic that it appears everywhere in the universe, from the 'lub-dub' of a healthy heart to the grand rhythms of the tides or the seasons. About words: I like to play with them, to mix and match, and come up with new combinations like 'popcorn moon' or 'eyelash talk'! I love oxymoron and litotes, light and shadow, humor and pathos. I believe: like a wild flower, love grows where you least expect it. When power enters, compassion abdicates. Anything truly beautiful has a touch of mystery. Some of the fragrance always clings to the hand that gives you roses."
