With my love for reading and writing, it’s actually surprising that I have never attempted poetry. Over the years, I’ve read poetry, but never really learnt to love it. So today, when I sat down to write this post, I found myself writing my first piece of poetry. It’s an ode to words. If anyone actually reads this piece, I’d love to have feedback…

An Ode to Words

Words that beleaguer; words that make you wonder,

Words to ponder; words that make your mind wander,

Words that teach; words that bring thoughts to speech.

But words can bring pain; words can bring shame,

Learn to use words with care, don’t get into a despair,

I love words, as you can see, words make me alive,

Words give definition to my life!
