There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word and that word is "UP"!
It's
easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the
list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
At
a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the
officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP
a report?
We call UP our friends and we use
it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, we warm UP leftovers
and clean UP the kitchen and some guys fix UP the old car.
At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite and think UP excuses.
To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special!
A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP so eventually the water must go down.
We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP!
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.
When
it threatens to rain we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out
we say it is clearing UP. When it rains it wets UP the earth.
When it doesn't rain for awhile things dry UP.
One could go on and on, but I will wrap it UP for now. My time is UP so time to shut UP!
Oh, one thing more--what is the first thing you do in the morning and the last thing you do at night? U P That's right!!!!!
