The Power of Words: A Thousand Words to Create, Heal, or Destroy

A thousand words are quite a lot

To fit them in a single thought

But I will try my very best

To weave them into something blessed

Words can paint a picture clear

Of love, of joy, of hope, of fear

They dance and twirl across the page

Creating worlds both wild and sage

With words, I can tell a tale

Of heroes bold and dragons frail

Of fairies flitting through the trees

Of magic spells and mysteries

Words can be a soothing balm

For those whose hearts have been embalmed

By grief, by sorrow, by despair

They help us find the strength to bear

But words can also hurt and sting

Like arrows from a bowstring

They wound and scar and leave a mark

That time alone can't heal or hark

So let us choose our words with care

And speak with love, not just to scare

Let us build each other up

And fill the world with kindness' cup

For though a thousand words may seem

Like just a drop in life's wide stream

They hold the power to create

A world of love or one of hate

So let us choose our words with care

And use them wisely, everywhere

To build a world that's bright and fair

Where love and peace are always there.
