Our Speech Is Within Heaven's Reach

Contributed by 2bpositive on Sunday, 4th December 2011 @ 11:04:19 AM in AEST
Topic: spiritual

If my words could fly
they would never die
living forever to be free
untouched for an eternity

Riding a summer breeze
never heard to displease
yet maintaining anonymity
not having to ever appease

Finding a place, that place to rest
far away from sins of gossip and jest
where holy souls abide, there to ride
waiting my turn, heaven's call to reside

My words do fly, on a bird's wings are they carried, to on high
never returning to our depths below, never again to hear a cry
returning from where they came, their heavenly abode awaits
these words we use, purchasing for us, our final eternal estates

Words are weightless, odorless, invisible, and to the naked eye hidden
how we use them in speech, can be a blessing for us, or can be forbidden
our thoughts are their fuel with lips as their vehicle, at times giving off heat
the ultimate caveat, knowing that in judgement, our words again will we meet

Standing in judgement are our words, they are as an oath to apply
witnesses for the prosecution, against body and soul will they testify
the words we choose to use, they impact on everyone we ever knew
thinking they would one day be used against us, we never had a clue

The power of speech was given for a purpose, so be very selective with words you choose
no matter what you might think, by using them for hate, in the end only yourself you abuse
the meaning of words and what they do, a mystery waiting to unfold at an appointed time
but to continue to be reckless with the words we use, would be an eternal irreversible crime
