You have caught the essence of poetry in a well written five - seven - five format. Constructing provocative thoughts in a few words is a gift that looks easier than it is. Good luck in the contest.

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem about the powerful impact our words have one the reader or the listener. Our words can build and inspire, or discourage and break down when we use them unwisely.

Pen is mightier than sword. This saying has been truly underlined in your poem
poets say a lot in just a few words .Haikus are best examples of this. All the best for the contest.

Hello Mystery Writer!
Spot on! How often, as a writer, am I humbled by reviews/remarks that my words have helped and/or inspired a reader. That is incredibly comforting and rewarding. On the flip-side, words can also destroy... Regardless, words have power, and you have crafted a very fine offering, indeed!

Best Wishes!
diane

So true and words can uplift and also bring tears, they can make bad days good and good days bad, the written word has more power than the spoken words because it can be read and re-read and still have the same impact each time, fine truthful words here, love Dolly x

On the other hand, Anonymous Poet, we must be very careful to remember that not everyone shares our loves, likes or distastes for a particular genre or style of poetry and, with tact, to take their feelings into consideration when we do our reviews or respond to theirs.
I have received one star ratings simply because someone didn't care for a photo or some artwork I chose to accompany it.
Know how I know that was their reason for such a low rating?
Because they told me so, that's how.
Words have power--the power to build us up, terrify us, or tear us down.
Words have started World Wars, made some people very rich and famous (if you're lucky), and spawned love affairs that last a lifetime.
It's true what they say...
"The pen is mightier than the sword."
Best of luck to you in the contest.
