Words
Walk with me for a while
And listen to my words
That fall like rain and
Drench the ground we pace
Talk with me for a mile
And I will watch your words
Spread like butterflies
On this road we grace
Brilliance comes in many ways
In words, in smiles, in deeds
But the greatest brilliance
Blinds the eye and
Dazzles make shift needs
Words they fall like petals
They carpet all the ground
And in the end their
Blown away and
Gone without a sound
