Words come in different sizes from short to long
Lyrics put to music make up the verse of a song
The letter ‘I’ when used alone is one complete word
“I” means the person responsible making a promise to you is me
Promise is another word some people use too frivolously
For instance if I sell you a product it comes with a guarantee
You may find yourself asking, “And what does this mean to me?”
A promise is assurance of what is too be
People use words as a way of communication
They come as expressions, discussions and even declarations
But these words should be wrought with restraint and consideration
For within them is a power to be a source of joy or depression
Take time, my friend before you speak and voice not from aggravation
Guard your thoughts for they too easily become words
Words can clearly cause pain to those who have heard
Be careful that your assertions are not prompted by feelings of duress
Kind words build bonds of friendship while angry words create animosities
Words of anger will intensify a quarrel while kind words will appease

I appreciate the perspective that you have shared regarding the power of words, Lew. It is true that words can alter the course of life... ...in both good ways and bad. Love and peace,

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
