The Power of Words: Wielding Our Voices with Care Not So Far Far Away

I could be thinking Star Wars,

but instead

I think of

my Pen...

Creating words of love

in a card,

sent for:

a birthday

a funeral

a get well wish

or

a just because.

I can use the Force,

my Force

of kindness and intent

to lift heavy hearts

and downturned mouths...

cutting through doom and

sadness to reveal

A New Hope.
