Some More on Words
I wish to speak some more on words
As moron words I've found
can as easily harm the shepherd's herds
as Gadarian swine were drowned
Words are things that we create
And tools with which to build.
We are the kings of our own fate,
By the chosen words we willed.
A single word can lift a soul,
Another one can kill.
One will help to reach a goal,
And one can crush the will.
Choose each word more carefully,
To bless, to help, to heal.
Once spoken, I say fearfully,
The pain or joy is real. -id
