An Argument by Sandra



I’m most important,” concludes Period.
Comma stammers, “No, it’s I, idiot.”
I ask the questions, you hear?” inquired Question Mark.
Alas, Exclamation Point bravely shouts, “But only I can follow the word, ‘Hark!’”

    1. I thought the other punctuation marks had to have their say, too. Thank you!

  4. I like the personified punctuation. They have personality to suit their jobs, don't they?

    1. Yes! Would have been interesting to explore more personalities if we could use more words! Hmmm. Maybe I should explore that thought...

  5. How funny. I always thought of numbers as having personalities, for some reason, but never punctuation. This is great. Thanks for linking up. Hope to see you back on Monday.

    1. Interesting... I'm the opposite. It never occurred to me that numbers can have personalities! Hmmm.

  6. Poetic. But the quotes really win, because they surround everybody. Evelyn

    1. (Smile). Perhaps that's why in 33 words, I only chose these four punctuation marks? Thanks for reading and your comment!
