It's those poetic sentences that get me. Grrr they make me so poetically hungry, smiley - drool I want to eat them, but that won't help. heheh. I will just have to study meter. It's the way they don't just stop at the end of each line, but they run into the next line, sometimes there's a comma, sometimes a full stop, but it's the rhythm they make, and the way the sounds of the words fit together without obvious rhyme, but it is a rhyme of sorts.

'Course you deserve the mention, dear Peanut.

Synergy! (good word!) is surely to do with people being together, easy and relaxed, creating new energy, everyone just being who they are and everyone's contribution is special and unique. That's what I think, anyway.

Mind you, I panic sometimes, because I can't write intelligent Guide Entries and things, but synergy! yes! I must remember that word.

smiley - kiss
