"Words are a power tool in use every day."

Words can be a deadly pill,
When used in anger they can kill.

In anger tossed out as we use,
They hurt deeply as we abuse.

When we pick the strongest words,
They cut deeply as if they are swords.

We throw the harsh words out.
They hit the listener with clout.

We use words in life every day.
Use them wrong and we pay.

Sometimes words come from above,
Especially when we speak of love.

Words can be like waves of the ocean,
When we say them full of emotion.

As writers, we choose words concretely.
For choosing well, they sound so sweetly.

Words are fun and can be best,
When they are thrown in jest.

We use them joking with a friend.
We laugh and chortle to no end.

Sometimes we choose them smartly,
As we affect our friends partly.

This poem I am afraid is at an end.
For these words from my heart, I send.

You have always had a way with words since I have known you. You use them well in telling stories which entertain. Never give up writing. It would be a great loss to the world.
I enjoyed this,less words some time are best.
Very well said. Word are such powerful. Great work.
No matter what language, culture, or setting. Words are something that will plague any society and it's up to those that came up with the very words to communicate to control how they use their creations. Very good piece that evokes thought and understanding.

It isn't the words themselves I believe to hold the power you cinvay. But the meaning behind the, the intention they are used under, and by how much others give them that power.
So very very true my friend. Cudos
I enjoyed your poem. Beautiful and lovely writing.
