The gift of words

by Ruth O'Reilly

entry picture

What you say this Christmas may be even more important than what presents you give ....

Some of them written

Most of them heard

Many are bitten

By the power

Of word

The gifts that 

You've given

Soon they forget

But choose words

With care

Lest a lifetime

Regret
