Words

Words those unsubstantial marks on the page

Describing concepts from the mind, retrieved from life’s  stage

Words those insignificant sounds reaching our ears

Communicating needs, joys and fears

What makes those words a potent force

When each receiver tunes in, differently of course

The pictures produced in the receivers  mind 

Influenced by their experiences, perceptions, beliefs inside

Words that paint pictures of concepts, we feel a need to express

If words evoke reaction maybe that’s a writer’s success
