What Is the Purpose of Our Thoughts, Words and Writing?
Where do our words go at the end of a day?
We think, we dream, we imagine,
We feel, we act, we work, love and we write.
At the start of a day, we have so much to say.
During the day, we work, live, write and play.
We visualize our thoughts and we speak,
The emotions that we feel inside.
We take part in life, with living, working and loving.
Life is filled with so much, so do not hide.
Our thoughts we convert into words,
So that others know what we express.
We convey our ideas, both great and small.
Yet, for some, it hits an unbreakable wall.
Our thoughts, words and writings are tools,
Students get an education in their schools.
We learn to express our feelings and knowledge.
This gives us in life that creative and practical edge.
At the end of the day, where do our words go?
Our words do not disappear like smoke into the ether.
My father would say our words are like precious seeds.
Every one of them can germinate into a tree for all to see.
Words are not just expressions of what we feel and see.
The words we write, and the ones we say, are our legacy.
Those words can brighten and make better someone’s day.
Value and polish those words as we use them every day.
