Words as sharp as a tigers claws,
Swifter than eagles flight,
Heavy as the mountains crust,
So much meaning behind your words.
For like a war you must choose your every move with care.
Words are a powerful tool.
More powerful than any sword or gun.
For they are like a shattered stick compared to the damage words have done.
The Devil himself laughs with pleasure as another spirit falls in pain.
All to the tongues of evil gain!
A soft kind thought that is spoken aloud.
Causes hope to splendor!
So speak truth and love,
For your sword may become a shield to those whose hearts are broken.
Take care to use your shield often for a kind word takes effect,
Like water to a dying world.
Like love to the lost.
Like a sunbeam in the darkness.
Help others flourish and grow with one phrase.
