WAR OF WORDS

W- what is it with our tongues, Sierra Leoneans 
A- Always spiteful in political discussion
R- Ruthless in our quest to win.

O- Oh, if only we knew that silence could avert  
F- Fires sparked from heated tones.

W- Words can wound and words can heal 
O- Often, Sierra Leoneans ignore that  
R- Reason can be lost in angry tones.  
D- Respite meaning well, a harsh tone can spoil it all.  
S- So, seek to listen, and avoid the war of words.
