A World of Words
By Keckith (a poet from The World of Eath, by Rafael Lopez)
This world we live upon,
Is made
From layers of words
Words that shape it,
And change
The tides that wash over our world.
By the words,
Spoken and written
Heard and remembered
Our world is crafted
And made into this land
Which we love
And this land
Which we live upon.
'Tis a world of words.
Everything has words,
Lingering upon their lips.
Waiting for the moment
To utter them,
Or to think them.
Our world is talking,
People and creatures
The wind and water
Sky and land.
In each of them
Lies a story made of words.
'Tis a world in words.
The world is full of words.
Floating in the breeze or carried by the currents.
They can all be heard.
They can all be read.
Go now and read them.
The world around us is speaking --
Go and listen to it.
