Power Of Words Poem by Winnie Naluwooza

Sometimes I stare in wonder
Just how everything
Came to be something.
And there is just one answer…
Through mere words.

Inspirational, they push us on,
Advisory, they show us the way forward
Hateful, they close our hearts to love
Lavish, they bring us joy.

And from words
Comes what we feel
And express to the world
Through our actions.

These actions break or form hearts,
Create or crush hope
Of those that listen
And watch their impacts.

Finally, together we act.
Giving definition to the world.
From simple and small words.
Words! Words! Words!
