We've all heard it said,
from a phrase coined of old,
the pen to the sword
makes the mightier foe.
Now let's take the tongue,
no comparison,
the pen and sword,
are merely for fun.
How deeply words cut
when tempered by tone,
a single ill curse
can cut to the bone.
The power of words
by a tongue that is kind,
can heal wounded hearts
and sooth tortured minds.
So watch what you say,
and just how you do,
or some other tongue
just might attack you.
