With words,
Do you build a pile?
Play and throw them, as you please?
For its use, can be versatile
Be mindful, or you’ll cease.
With words,
You can put a smile
Or can make, one weep.
Strike a heart across a mile
Or terrify you, in your sleep.
Causes wounds, which never heals
Damages peace, akin to a hurricanes.
Layers of emotions, it conceals
Unimaginable power, it contains.
So use your words, with utter wise
Helps you make friend or foe .
For after its said, comes with a price
Takes you to heights or down the valley below.

Wise words indeed, Verity. The power of words can be incredible, for good or for bad. Gets me thinking about how words are used, or maybe I should say misused on social media. I like the poetic way you have put across your cautionary message.
