                     WORDS
                         Words are mysterious as the wind.
                         In cause and effect beyond our ken.
                         Words can create and words destroy,
                         Like artist's brush or vandal's pen.
                         Words know no limits of time or space -
                         A potent blend of sound and thought.
                         Whilst sounds themselves may be recalled,
                         Thoughts, like shooting stars,go on their way,
                         Creating new worlds of grief or joy.
