Today's word was 'Aphrodisiac.'
He showered her with haikus and limericks though short stories were
the most cherished.
His commas and semi-colons were precise.
Never an exclamation mark more, never a parentheses less.
He always minded his ellipsis and her periods.
He never let his hyphens become dashes.
He was a cunning linguist.
His words. Her turn ons.
