SOFT WORDS

Soft words,

Oh, such rare commodities in these hard days.​​

Far above the price and security that gold proffers,

They raise platforms of peace and build bridges of understanding.

Wisdom and forbearance are their mentors.

Only if we all recognize when

Rashness and brutality are lurking around for conspirators!

Deeply therapeutic,

Soft words are priceless potions to be shared lavishly, and not for keeps!

"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit." Proverbs 15:1,4
