Wordy Life
Words are here. Words are there.
Words are dancing 'round my head.
Words of people's talking cares.
Words of song's directions lead.

Words have meaning. Some are fluff.
Ocean waves of words may crush
Through the ears 'til it's enough.
Thoughts of words makes synapse rush.

Words of beauty. Words of Joy!
Words of gifted writer's love
Fill the pages to employ
hope of respite from above.

Words may coo and words may shout.
Words may heal the broken heart.
Words can lift off shoulders doubt,
giving life new buoyant start.

Words fill books in gentle nooks.
Words lift minds to ancient times.
Words are balm to saints or crooks.
Words are ropes on mountain climbs.

Words are crops from fertile soil
of heart that lives emotion's flow.
Words are stops in daily toil
that doctor pain in minds that know.

Words can drown all time and space,
lifting barque of history,
'til The Lord of lasting Place
causes "Peace. Be still." to be.
