What's Up??????
There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that 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.
We use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver.
We warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.
We lock UP the house 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 blocked UP
We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.
We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP !
To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary.
In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions.
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used.
It will take UP a lot of your time. 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 the earth and often messes things UP. When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP
One could go on and on, but It is better to wrap it UP, for the time is UP
