Several months ago I realized that I have a favorite word. What is it?
Perhaps.
First of all, it literally sounds interesting, with a certain balance and symmetry in its two syllables. Similarly, for me it also comes with a certain promise and optimism -- it's not NO (probably my least favorite word).
Of course, perhaps isn't yes either, but it could be. As a child, my mother often said "perhaps" in response to our requests. To me, this response allowed me to continue to hope, and what could be better than that?

My favorite word is "bedtime".
My Mom used to say the same thing to us, Becks!
BTW, I tried to explain myself and flamed out in spectacular fashion.

Becks, you said A word, other wise I would have said "Bedtime, kids."

"So if you really love me,
say yes.
But if you don't, dear, confess.
And please don't tell me
perhaps, perhaps, perhaps."
