Some words spoken
Float past us like wispy
Feathers in the sky
Nebulous clouds bringing doubt
Uncertainty and confusion

“You Matter”
Two words
Spoken
At the
Right time
Often
Impact
A mind
For good
Bring change
Plant hope
Give peace
Words have
Such power!
Syllabic Verse
A word came into my life today,
and it was totally brand new.
It caused me to stop and think
of what I was about to do.
It made me realize
that words can change a life,
Their entrance can bring about
the beginning or ending to strife.
Spoken in just a moment,
at the proper time and place,
a word can make a difference
of winning or losing a race.
For good words are treasures,
golden nuggets received along the way
hold them close ,dearly,
for they can truly make your day.
And then, when the time is right,
choose to let those good words go,
and right into the life of another
some goodness you will sow.

Angry
Rude words spoken
Close friendship embittered
Relationship destroyed hastily
Hearts wounded

Treated unfairly.
Rude words spoken.
Things untrue blasted.
Feelings wounded.
My spirit angry.
Head bowed low.
Reminded of the Armor.
I read the word.
I pray in the Spirit.
My shield of Faith goes up.
I stand firm in shoes of Peace.
The enemy retreats…
