The Words of the Tongue

byrose butterfly©

The words of the tongue
They are sharp as a knife
Piercing and cutting
Away at life.

But that's not the way
That God has intended
Our words should not destroy
But heal a heart that needs mended.

Guard your lips
Keep pure every word
Send life from your tongue
Blessing all those who heard.
