The silence of solitude
Brings realisation
Of the preciousness of words.
How speech impacts others
How life and death
Are in the power of the tongue.
Life through honesty and encouragement
Death in gossip and lies
Positive words bringing hope
Negative words despair.
May silence improve my listening
And lead to my speaking
Words fitly spoken
Of wisdom and love
Apples of gold
In baskets of silver.*
*Proverbs 25:11
