[hometext] => A short poem to act as a reminder that it's not only the walls that have ears!
[bodytext] => If my words could fly they would never die living forever to be free untouched for an eternity Riding a summer breeze never heard to displease yet maintaining anonymity not having to ever appease Finding a place, that place to rest far away from sins of gossip and jest where holy souls abide, there to ride waiting my turn, heaven's call to reside My words do fly, on a bird's wings are they carried, to on high never returning to our depths below, never again to hear a cry returning from where they came, their heavenly abode awaits these words we use, purchasing for us, our final eternal estates Words are weightless, odorless, invisible, and to the naked eye hidden how we use them in speech, can be a blessing for us, or can be forbidden our thoughts are their fuel with lips as their vehicle, at times giving off heat the ultimate caveat, knowing that in judgement, our words again will we meet Standing in judgement are our words, they are as an oath to apply witnesses for the prosecution, against body and soul will they testify the words we choose to use, they impact on everyone we ever knew thinking they would one day be used against us, we never had a clue The power of speech was given for a purpose, so be very selective with words you choose no matter what you might think, by using them for hate, in the end only yourself you abuse the meaning of words and what they do, a mystery waiting to unfold at an appointed time but to continue to be reckless with the words we use, would be an eternal irreversible crime [comments] => 0 [counter] => 78 [topic] => 62 [informant] => 2bpositive [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => spiritual )
