Words.



Words are delightful,words are flattering,
Words are lovely and meant for chattering.

Words can hurt,but they can love,
Can also be as harmless as a dove.

Words can kill,can revive,too,
And can turn feelings from old-to new.

Words are words,they healed and they cured,
Yet,'tis said,words are sharper than the sword!
