Be careful when you talk. Better know your words.
The most powerful has always been the spoken word.
Every soul who walks this planet forever seeks life.
When you open your mouth make sure to speak life.
May your words be enough to make the plants grow.
Vibrant speeches of life that make the land flow.
Be generous enough with your word to make us wanna give.
Speak enough life to make your listeners wanna live.
Be positive with your words. Value every single breath.
The words you speak can teach us that there’s always something left.
Your words are the key to how peak life.
Make sure you talk carefully and speak life.

That is such a great reminder to us all. Very thought provoking; especially in times we are in! Thank you.
Thank you for the reminder. I needed to read that.
Oh, how we wish everyone would heed the words in this poem. Once said, you can't take it back, so think carefully first. Great job, Joe.
What a splendid poem and point made. Words are a catalyst and should be used wisely and timely. "“The wise man knows when to keep silent" (Neil Gaiman)
