COLLAGE OR COLLISION                                                  Word Art Collage-Pools of Poetry

.....ONE THING LEADS TO ANOTHER?

collage-an assemblage or occurrence of diverse elements or arrangements in unlikely or unexpected juxtaposition.

collision-an encounter between particles resulting in exchange or transformation of energy.

(Miriam-Webster Dictionary)  yes, I really do pull out the book and 'look it up'!)

Someone asked me what my blog site was 'about'....well......it's a 'word' collage, sometimes a collision of thoughts in word, image, and song........a moment in time; past, present, or future.......organized chaos....it's whatever I want it to be.....it's 'about' Me.......and it just IS.....   : )


and then again........it's NOT just about Me; not really.....

ALWAYS AN INKLING....

Inkling: A slight indication or suggestion. A slight knowledge or vague notion.-Merriam-Webster Dictionary

'Who Were The Inklings?'-Dr. Bruce L. Edwards-Bowling Green State University  c.2006

"The Inklings writers group met together weekly between 1933-1949. Led by Oxford University literary scholars C. S. Lewis, creator of the 'Chronicles of Narnia' and J. R. R. Tolkien, creator of 'The Hobbit and 'The Lord of the Rings' this now legendary troupe read aloud from their works-in-progress over pints of stout and equal parts uproarious laughter and earnest criticism, producing an astonishing number of works over a period of 16 years."
