Lately there have been words running through my head that I can't seem to get rid of. I don't know why my conscious pulled them from the dusty corners of memory and decided to shove them to the front of my mind, but there they sit and pace the day away waiting to be spoken into existence.
There was once a writer who said that of all the endless combinations of words in the English language, "Cellar Door" was the most beautiful.
Here are some of my favorites:
blandiloquent mellifluous
ephemeral
gossamer
penumbra lithe
But the very best I think?
sempiternal
Because it means forever and ever and then after that
