Words

What were your words today?
What did you say to the first person you talked to?
Were your words kind?

What about the words to yourself?
As you looked in the mirror preparing for your day
Were your words kind?

What about your comments towards God?
Did you curse him as a non-believer or
Were your words kind?

Were you kind to the store clerk who was sick today?
Did you even speak to them?
Were your words kind?

You talk to your husband/wife
Were your words kind?
Were they delivered with love?

Your son or daughter
Were your words kind?
Were they delivered with love?

Tomorrow all words will be kind.
The way life should be
Delivered with love and kindness.

I can’t wait till tomorrow
Kind words for everybody.
Will you help me?
