A word on paper
has meaning to show
the curious reader
who needs to know
Yet…
If nobody wants to know
none would read
then the words are forsaken
and become as deceased
suddenly, withered as leaves
they lie on the ground
Spoken words
are different though
Shaped in syllables
of waves and sound
Pregnant with feelings
of Heart and mind
Yet…
with no-one to hear,
it falls to the ground
and simply disappear
The Word of God
is clear about this
Grow close to Him
and He will stay close
to you
Then…
when you speak,
No word
will fall to the ground, (1 Sam 3:19)
blow away,
or merely disappear
