'Overstated Words' Poem by Linda Winchell

Peace and Love both are words of deep meaning!
Yet so often with no real meaning said.
If Peace were ALL what mankind strived for
Then there would be no wars, and its taken dead.

Love is a word often so loosely uttered
But what of its truest given meaning?
If Love were what one really had meant
Then there would be no broken hearts, left bleeding!

We need to place within each word said
The truest of ones depth of heart!
And not just say them, 'Just Because'
A trend someone decide that he or she would start!

Say your words with the heart of a child!
And wrap it in the deepest, of a child's hug!
Then, 'Peace', will have truest of meaning spoken!
And so will the word of, 'Love! '
