Welcome to The Writer's Terrace - a haven for writers.

The Writer's Terrace (formerly known as The Written Word) is a haven for writers to come and share the expression of their hearts in our little "terraced garden" of women and friends. We don't have deadlines or assignments, just the opportunity to share the things we write.

We would love to have you join us and share your writing. Feel free to speak and write from the heart in whatever form you desire, but please no offensive language. Stories, poetry, free-write, letters, whimsical - anything that takes your fancy.

If you would like to join us please go to The Writer's Terrace Yahoo Group and fill out the application.

Chocolate by Debra

Chocolate


I must some day investigate

Why chocolate can captivate

So many worshipers and acolytes,

Moaning and swooning over every bite.

 

Some spend much of their salaries

For a box of one million calories,

Hoping the gift will most certainly coax

The feeling of love it ultimately invokes.

 

Were it my choice, I would choose

A creamy cheese, soft and smooth

And possibly would consummate

A dining coup with each heaping plate.

 

A box of candy – conspicuous

For the desired end, I must confess.

But overall, it goes the mile

For making any recipient smile.
