After contributing to this question I had another thought: It is often hard to describe in words the feelings one can get from words. One can be moved by a poem, story or song and yet not be able to describe that feeling in words.

The limits of words are magnified by the fact that everybody has a different perspective of things than everybody else. Different languages and different areas emphasize different feelings (it is said that in Seattle there are more terms around the word ‘gray’ than in say, Phoenix). Also, words and sounds can create emotions of their own. Look at poetry, literature, music.

However, right now I get the point because I am at a loss of words to describe, in depth, how I feel about this statement.

Well said.

Nice.

I think that is why we need Artists... they can often communicate through images music or poems etc what we lesser mortals struggle to express. I once stood by a river estuary and the water thundered by it felt so powerful and vast I literally couldn't speak... as you say I just felt the emotion of its energy I was part thrilled part fearful... Thanks for your post

Lovely.

For not being able to find the words, you expressed yourself precisely enough to make me feel something!

This one of the fundamental reasons I write poems I can take words that you would not commonly find together and incorporate them in a line and create an entire different interpretation of the intend use in essence an unknown thought that needs an expression.
