Plain but careless words,
which, sometimes, are like
light but unsteady wind,
can become a tornado,
they can tear down
whatever it is, patiently,
built for years.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Obične riječi
Obične ali nepažljive riječi,
koje, ponekad, prijaju kao
lagani ali nestalni vjetar,
mogu postati tornado,
mogu srušiti sve što je
godinama strpljivo građeno.

Words once spoken, the effect can not be retrieved. We need to be careful of careless words. Please kindly check my poems HOPE and THE BEAUTY OF DEATH. Kingsley Egbukole
