Let words forever be the latter...

"Words
Are like little waves that sweetly kiss the shore, touch the soul with joy, roll into our lives like the peace train�those are words I want to live with, love with, die with and want to be remembered with."

For with these beautiful words, so many changes can for the
better be changed..

Wise and lovely spoken words...

Love and Light
Lily

the approach is signficant and telling in
this poem as you chose, Dan, to make it immediate
and personal through similes and that's what does it
for me; no dry abstractions here, this work is alive
and completely enjoyable
kudos!

Excellent poem about the power of words. As I finished reading the last line the phrase, "First there was the word." popped into my head.
