A single phrase
can grasp a heart,
tie a tight knot
that never parts.
A little phrase,
can change strong views,
obstruct visions
that were once true.
A whispered phrase
can linger on,
far past the time
when it is gone.
A simple phrase
can be complex,
introducing
what will come next.
A tiny phrase
can carry facts,
that influence
infinite acts.
A thoughtless phrase
can affect lives,
embrace bright words
so others thrive.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
