Phyllis Babcock Poet Light Verse

Words

The past will not predict your future
if you change you learn and grow
making more healthy choices
if we have fear
we will not be happy
get rid of fearful thoughts
for your words matter
think positive thoughts
leave negativity behind
use words wisely
words can be hurtful
words can be embarrassing
words can sabotage
think before you speak
