Voices

On June 24, 2015October 25, 2017 By Baydreamer - Lauren ScottIn Life, Poetry

They are in control of
Their content and volume
They can spread love universally
Their intent can increase cruelty
They are powerful to a higher degree
Their gift is not to be taken in vain
They are us, they are you, and they are we
Their capability can beautify our world
They are counting on us to nurture
Their ability to mend what. has. been. broken.

  Thanks so much, Sue. This is another “thought” post rather than a poem, I think. 🙂 I’m glad you’re listening, too! Much love and many hugs to you, dear friend…♥

Words have great power, for good or bad. We certainly could use more of the good kind.

Pretty heavy insightful thoughts there Lauren.
Like the way your words illustrate your thinking.
All mankind summed up as one.

  Thanks so much, Ian. If we could only use our voices to spread love instead of hate throughout our world…:)
