Words Are Hard To Say

POEM # 3 - CREATORS UNITED - 24 HOUR CHARITY STREAM

Word from Keegan (he really wanted to challenge me with this one):

Pneumoultramicroscopicsilicovalcanoconiosis

Volcanic crystalline dust particles

Words Are Hard To Say

I’m addicted to a word

Not just any word

A very special word

The longest Word 
By far
In an English dictionary

Pneumoultramicroscopicsilicovalcanoconiosis 

What?

What on earth 
Is that?

Don’t be upset or despair

It’s not as hard as you think

You’ll understand in a wink and a blink

This I promise you!

Most call it Silicosis

A short little word

For a bad lung disease

Silicosis!

That’s a shortened word

Like bus for Omnibus

Or pram for Perambulator

Let’s break it down

To make some sense

Shall we?

Pneumo is a common virus

Ultra means extreme

Microscopic is smaller than small

Don’t give up now

You’ve got this

You’re already halfway there

Silico is a common quartz

Valcano sends ash into the air

Coniosis is a lung disease

Does all that make sense?

The longest word in the dictionary

Means tiny crystals in the lungs

Now say it with me

It’s easy if you try

One word at a time

Pneumo

Ultra

Microscopic

Silico

Valcano

Coniosis

Easy!
