Unguarded Word......Think Before U Speak! Poem by saadat tahir

Unguarded Word......Think Before U Speak!

Rating: 3.1


Unguarded word, befriended bird.
Weighted fell by thrice or third.
Dusty grind, millers churn.
Pummel ears, murmurs burn.

Mongered word off china town,
bamboos morph to fretting frown.
Snared enmeshed, wasted sage,
bowl of death at generous age.

Placid morns to sullied days,
rancid slicks on sandy bays.
Bubbly sprays dash and bounce,
buffet sighs in crannies trounce.

Tongues to airs, wings have lent.
Hath words to many, a gallows sent.
Deadened eyes to rainbows womb,
spured fear to tear to life entomb.

Strongest will and hardy soul.
Char and writhe on carmine coal.
Words said, unsaid, worlds apart.
Volley's sent, will raze ramparts

Dear Saadat, there is a hidden rhyme zone and a dictionary inside your head and heart wherefrom spring forth perfectly strung colourful garlands of words.. I like the title which teaches the effectiveness of the unguarded word by the following poem...you are a master..I salute....thanks for your comment too
