Words... Poem by Holly Robbins

Words can cheer you up
when you are down or cause you to stumble
and hit face first onto the ground.
Words can touch your heart
or make you feel like you're falling apart.
Words can inform you of good news
or make your heart almost stop when you
find out that someone you knew is dead.
Words can unite or cause us to fight!
Words can be sweet and sweep us off our feet
or words can be mean and cut us really deep.
Words can inspire and fill our hearts with desire
or words can perspire and make us feel like a liar.
Words can bring life to one thing and death to another,
so let us be careful concerning what we say to one another.
