Words like fire.
They flicker!
They spark!
They ignite!
Words hold power
The power to dominate!
To engulf!
To over-take!
A power like I’ve never known.
To captivate!
To rage!
Always inside but never to liberate.
Words like the ocean.
They tumble!
They crash!
They set free!
Words set me free!
Free to dive right in.
To surf the highs.
To re-emerge.
I’ve been set free to love
Become a person able to express
This glorious emotion...
And to give of my heart
With awe filled devotion!
Words like trees.
With roots that run deep.
Towering bodies
With branches that reach!
Words give new life...
A life to dream.
To inspire .
To seek.
New life to all who “speak”!
Not with voices,
But thoughts that shout!
Not with tongues,
But with dreams that are loud!
Words like fire, ocean and trees!
Powerful
Freeing
Renewing
And they. are. mine!
