In Charity

They know, I feel...I mean I think

when language deprives

emotion of expression

and notion of nuance

as it sometimes, often does

 

I play a game with words

and let them catch my meaning

and write my song

 

I have a feeling

sometimes

 

they know I’m  

a destitute child

and in charity

just play along

Wordplay is unique to each of us..it pulls those inner strings and unravels into mysterious writings but we know..we always smile at the musings of the wordplay :) xo

"when language deprives
emotion of expression" ~It often does get deprived when we are unable to express ourselves fluently. However, your wordplay makes it an alluring game for my mind to decipher...It's short and sweet, yet fully expressed, and fun to play (not charity at all)...very clever.

Words play well... or a sign that says' "Words at Play" ..that would be fun lol.. Well written. I love it.
