Poem

The impact of word

In a realm where words hold sway,

A tale unfolds, day by day.

A soul adrift, lost and alone,

Encountered words, like seeds sown.

At first, mere whispers in the wind,

Yet slowly, they began to rescind,

The shadows that had clouded the mind,

With each verse, a new truth to find.

The speaker, with wisdom's grace,

Guided the lost soul to a place,

Where doubts and fears began to fade,

And newfound courage was displayed.

With every syllable, a shift occurred,

As the listener's heart was stirred,

Transformed by the power of speech,

Their inner world began to breach.

Through laughter, tears, and heartfelt sighs,

The listener learned to empathize,

With others' joys and pains alike,

Their compassion burning bright.

So, heed the words that others say,

For they may shape you in some way.

In this narrative of life's design,

Words possess a force divine.
