They are just words

What are words?

The chameleons of the writier's world

Words can do so many things

Words can break a heart into millions of pieces

Words can cause a heart to mend

Words can be like a spider's web, beautiful, yet deadly

if you fall into the spider's trap

Words can be like a beaurtful song, soft and low or hard and loud

No matter the sound, the song will appeal to someone

Words can make the mind visualize

What the writer is wanting to say

Words can bring tears of joy or sadness

Yes, it's all the the words, either said or written

Words we say are etched in hearts

Words we write are etched on paper

They are just words.

 

You write very well to explain how words can destroy or  build. I liked your poem very much. Also if critisizing a person should make it constructive critsism otherwise all is destruction, and we all need

guidlines in life.

Yes. I think the problems

Yes. I think the problems arise when people lose touch with the fact that they make the words come alive...or not. Like with their emotions, they lose (or are ignorant of) the fact that the words are their tools, and not their master. It can drive some people to the pits of irrationality in thought and behavior. 

 

nice write!!

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

All of us at one time or

All of us at one time or another have "those words" that are etched in our minds for one reason or another. Good or bad we remember.  Thanks for your kind comment

Words

Can change you mind

and confuse you

make you dream

then look out a window

.

Words can paint

and walk around outside

as letters with feet

and parking meters.

.

Words can approximate

loving, hope is the goal

or failure and woes so severe

words fail.
