Have you ever thought What little words can do? How they can bring a smile Or make someone feel blue How they can paint a picture Beyond our wildest dreams Or let off all our anger When in our words we scream With wafting of aromas Or billowing white clouds Or just describing people That are standing in the crowds You can scramble them together Describe the perfect scene Explain a situation That to others is not seen You can bring a stream to life Describe a rainbow from the fall Add some words like towering And describe the trees so tall Describe a bird that's flying Or nestled with her young Or how hard you laughed when You saw the giraffes tongue I think they're more than simple And can be more than complex Words they are a miracle That allow our minds to flex <*\\\>< I know not what the future holds, but I know Who holds the future. I don't question YOUR existance - GOD |

Indeed! Words are magical. I missed this the first time around. Thanks for posting it again here. I definatley enjoyed this piece. Joy Our doubts are traitors, And make us loose the good we oft might win By fearing to attempt. ~Shakespeare |

Very nicely put. I wish I could have just one day When writing would seem like child's-play, But words keep getting in the way. Gene (formerly, u_gene) |

Words they are a miracle.. I like ^_^one of your rhymes sounds a bit forced("trees so tall"), but I'm completely incompetent writing rhyming poetry, I stick to free verse.. so.. yeah. Words are very special things, so it's fitting to pay tribute to them with a poem, especially one like this. Love, Lynne “One word can be magical. Imagine then, the effect of several words, together..” |
