Where do the words come from?
In stillness and quiet
Every simple thing
is set in stone
Never to be
taken away
The explication
and application
a wandering voice
Given freedom
a chance
to breathe
comfortably

Nice. Also, where does anything come from? Or, why not nothing. Let go into the mystery.
Gerry~ The mystery of where our words come from is what I was trying to highlight. The question you raise is an important one. Why choose one way to express a thought? What impels one to seek greater metaphors, or symbols, or emotion, from the words we use? It is what we look for in poetry; that unseen element which makes a singular view, universal.
Thank you for seeing this & commenting.

What a wonderful thought William!
Keep sharing.
Your friend Always.
Alwayswinner786~~It's a writers thought for sure. The mystery of our wordsmithing is one I've thought about for a long time. Words, really are so important; the words we use must be logical, thoughtful in conveying things we may not have known that we knew. That's mystery: How do we know what we know?; and, how can that slight bit of knowing be articulated in an interesting way: A thought of Thinking Person's Poem, where the reader doesn't have to do a lot of thinking...The flow of the words & the meaning is clear.
