I agree with you that playing with words in a way we aren't used to or don't like (initially) is a good exercise. I don't like writing poetry either but the couple times I have been required to come up with something, I got more than I expected out of it.Margo Berendsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476308235642890474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-855485928545677951.post-69478756385790453192010-06-01T09:09:46.839-04:002010-06-01T09:09:46.839-04:00Oh, yes.
