Words
Words have color and intent,
texture, size and shape;
loosed by emotions we give
legs to lowly travel, and wings
to keep them aloft~ those articulated
ribboned kites we fly in our poetry
Once released, we can never take
them entirely back
Words knit together and scatter,
Blend and splatter
Mend and shatter – make smile
and tear...
Words are everything to
marvel under and over
Something for everyone
we should both treasure
and fear.
