"...Do they live on someone's tongue?
Are they silent, my words, unsung?..."


Poem Artwork

"Do They Live On?"

I launched my words into the air,
They fell to Earth, I know not where,
Do they live on somebody's tongue?
Are they silent, my words unsung?

I painted words onto the clouds,
I hoped they'd be seen by the crowds,
Did my words live on, did they die?
Or are my words stuck in the sky?

I branded words upon the sun,
No words were wasted, not a one,
Do they live on, so very bright?
Or were they hijacked by the night?

I sang my words onto the stars,
I played their rhythm, with guitar,
Do they live on, their meter strong?
Or are they an old fashioned song?

I put my words into a book,
Are my words worth a second look?
Will they live on in someone's heart?
Or will they never get that start?

Words are powerful! Do you realize how much power your writing has?For instance, if only one person read only one sentence that you wrote, that one sentence could perhaps inspire him, give him courage, bring him joy, answer a question, give him an idea, make him laugh, etc. Who knows what your writings have caused? So be not discouraged, dear one, because someone, somewhere might chance upon something that you've written and be enriched by it and evolve, just because of you! You, poet, will never know just how much good or bad your writing has inspired! You are perhaps fulfilling your life quest ... through writing! Keep writing with this in mind!

Life lives with words, without them there is no life. Your words live as long as there is life on earth and you shall remain alive in the souls of wisdom though passed away thousands of years after saying them. Wonderful poem. your friend and brother, abdinoor
