Have you ever given thought on how language impacts you,
good or bad it all depends on the words you ruminate & chew
be careful what you choose to expel when your mouth spews
for it can either bless someone or wound, bet you never knew
that one can learn to ponder words and usher without blurt
do not speak on angry terms for all it does is bring more hurt
when the sun go down, tuck away hostility and don't be curt
make sure you care enough not to pill, rampage, or blurt
words can be a sanctuary to go to when no one seems to care
they can be a respite from that cruel world, your Lancelot dare
don't let the light of the stars cease to shine because of a flare
be slow to roll that pearly tongue, even slower to make it blare
not everyone thinks like you, wrong and right is only a concept
so don't bully your opinions on others and make them feel inept
please don't yank words out, it would be best if they overslept
good bedside manners are essential, it cannot be windswept.
One hopeS that the words they write articulate feeling from the writer and give a message to the reader. Some are stuble , some touch people in various ways. I feel writing is a gift to be shared with those who want to read it! GREAT SHARING!
OH THE 'FREEDOM OF SPEECH' HOW SWEET IT IS! NOW HERE, I WOULD SAY THAT THE OLD CLICHE' '...IT'S NOT WHAT ONE SAYS, BUT HOW THEY SAY IT...' RINGS QUITE TRUE. AND THIS CAN, I WOULD THINK, BE ENJOYED MOST APPROPRIATELY IN PERSONAL WRITING, WORKS, CONVERSATIONS, ETC . HOWEVER WHEN ONE POSTS ON-LINE WHERE THE 'WORLD' CAN ACCESS THEIR SHARING, ONE CAN EXPECT RESPONSES THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY AGREED WITH OR ENJOYED. BUT BARRING PROFANITY AND PERSONAL INSULTS... MOST WOULD RATHER, AND I AM SURE DOES APPRECIATE, HONEST WORDS AND OPINIONS...AS OPPOSED TO HIPOCRITICAL ONES. THANKS FOR SHARING, MY FRIEND. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS
Guiding words to make us all think… and consider carefully that often
the pen really is mightier than the sword…
Your words are always so honest, yet kind and uplifting Vienna…
You are a great example to us all…
Thanks for the lesson on how to be subtle. I've got a lot of learning to do, since I blurted out so much that later came back as a pain from someone else's viewpoint.
I know the photo is not you, but it certainly shows your personality very well.
"words can be a sanctuary"... yes they can, and they can also be a sword wielded against injustice and evil. And you're absolutely right, no two people think alike, and as a consequence, no two people express alike. It's one of the beauties and mysteries of being human. An honest insight. r
