WORDS

Words are weapons, and words are tools

They shape the fate of kings and fools

Many a meaning; and of many  kinds

The only window into sentient minds

 Words are plenty; and left to choice

But pointless words, often add to noise

Hurting words can drown a broken heart

And a proud word can drag lovers apart

Careless words can fuel hatred's fire

And  untrue words haunt the evading liar

So don’t shed words, without a reason

Words that feed, hatred, lust and self delusion

Think before you speak; before your wild tongue leaps

Speak only! Words of universal virtue

Speak only!  Words of love and compassion

Switch on the filter of the virtuous mind

And speak only!, words that are truly kind

Words !! The only window into sentient minds!!
