I love the oxymoron feel about them.<br />I would not Linger in Linguistics, argh ! The enemy of creativity. Gambol in Geology: I can see myself clambering over rocks, and rocks, and rocks. It made me think of the Arches National Park in Moab, UTAH. My favourite walk there is to the Delicate Arch. There’s a photo on my post IWSG Drawing and Writing from beginning of February.<br />Well done. It’s OK to find ideas from other sources, we can’t always be inspired by a prompt ! The essential thing is to get those creative juices flowing !<br />Have a lovely evening.Susan B.Rouchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08801283790969288263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401528799218373095.post-33485147048854625422019-02-26T15:43:42.216+00:002019-02-26T15:43:42.216+00:00I like these plays on words, nice and uplifting.
