Civilization's wisdom is contained in words.Words may be soft or hard, may create hope or fear.We can use words for the best of mankind or misuse them.So it is said - -Watch your words. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful poem.

So much wisdom here, Ali. I am reminded that one of the most devastating things a person can face is no words....silence, neglect, perhaps the greatest abuse. In some cases ugly words are the basis for a better reality. So imagine the power of positive words.? A great poem, Ali. (Report)

Words are very useful, but we have be careful of how we use them. Even so, encouraging words can breathe life into lowly souls!

Words are precious like our breathe. We cannot count either of them.When we loose we realise its worth. Beautiful write. Loved the ink.

Beautiful, words are the bricks that the world we making surround us, with love it make us stay in peace and with mad lines it change life to be crazily uneasy... And with words also we can convey what heart wanted to tell not only just keep the feeling inside... How beautiful world is because of great words, and they born from mind that think and heart that has the beauty... Lovely work Ali

Power of the words is enormous. That is what we see here. Life breath. Life ceases when it stops. We don't count how many times we breathe. Nice poem.

With simple words, you have managed to convey a depth of thought provoking images. I very much appreciate the invitation to read your work. I believe we should all strive to speak KINDER words to one another, in the spirit of better understanding not only our differences, but more importantly, our similarities! Well done....PEACE

Wonderful descriptive writing Ali. I liked 'words define paths when they are stars' 'words are sunset at some sea shore. The last stanza is excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed this poem. Top marks Karin Anderson
