Words

Recently I came across this great quote from Winston Churchill " All the great things are simple and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope."

This quote led me to thinking about the word:word and then it led to...

Some words

Get stuck in our throats

And never get out.

Some words

Linger on our lips

Waiting for just the right time to jump .

Some words

Tumble, cascade, fall

Continually moving along.

Some words

Make melodious sounds

It's music to our ears.

Some words

Spill out so fast

If only we could take them back.

The words we speak

Can be positive or negative.

The words we write

Can inspire and challenge.

Words change us

comfort us

And show our emotions.

Words come in different sizes and shapes

Learn a new word today.

My new word of the day is quagmire. When I discovered its meaning I also found quaggy and quaff.
