Wordie ...Syllables

Today’s word is “wordie” ... a person with an enthusiastic interest in words and language;; a logophile. (Dictionary.com)

Syllables 
A Webster’s international,
From 1944,
Sits upon my table,
In it flags and planes and more.

Pictures of the editors,
Grace the early pages,
Then following, definitions,
Enough for all the sages.

For a wordie, it is bliss,
Hours of joyous exploration,
All the world inside a book,
The best in contemplation.
