This poem has a lovely message.

The old saying, "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me..." is not true.
Words can hurt worse.

I love the way you have expressed yourself so softly, yet profoundly. No revisions.

Lovely poem.

Have a happy Thanksgiving Day!
Blessings,
~Nic

Why, indeed. Sometimes I wonder why we cease to care about what we say. For it is not what goes in the mouth that defiles us. It is what comes out.

Sixteezkid,

Words are painful. If your words cut me down the problem is that you can apologize for the stabs and remove the knives but I will remember what you said and the scar will be with me forever.

I love the theme you chose for this one. You did a wonderful job once again.

There were no errors that I could see.

I look forward to seeing you again.

Love you,

Oatmeal

A double tetractys (I still think it's a prehistoric bird!) and it is excellent. How true it is that we can do so much harm with words. Think of the cyber bullying that is causing so much pain and even death to young people.

Very strong poem. Amazing how
so few words can express such strong
emotions. Some fresh images here.
"cuts penetrate our soul down to the core
as we flinch from their sounds." good work.
