WORDS Words
are like a river in flood Sometimes
like the dry bed in a drought Leaving
mouth and lips, they wave goodbye Regretfully
sometimes, sometimes gladly They
fly upwards...or downwards ! Bringing
joy and sadness, love and hate They
can be prosaic and also deep They
bring understanding.....but often
they don't They
can make or break, heal or hurt You
have to be careful with words They
are tricksters and frauds They
are sincere and honest One
will betray or sorrow bring One
herald the coming of romance The
fall of leaves in autumn The
budding trees in spring The
death of passion on stony heart The
exhilaration of the new
lovers kiss Words
can say all and must be watched But
rather watch them than the alternative No
words to say anything about anything at all.............. ~ Edward Radfall ~
