Words Are Important

Words are important
 How do I know
 This for certain.
 Follow me not
 Oh again you say what?
 Listening to people
 In our world
 In our family's
 In our communitys
 In our church's
 Follow me not
 Is this now what on our
 Tv we are taught
 Saying hateful words
 While pointing your finger
 So where is this all
 Coming from
 So much anger.
 Follow me not
 This is not what 
 My parents taught
 Kindness and caring
 Helping out others
 Love one other.
 One life
 One chance
 One other
 Love Thy brother.
 Follow me yes
 Don't call names
 Everyone on this
 Planet born the same
 From the government
 To we the people
 If you say nice things
 Postive thoughts and actions
 It will bring
