My One Word... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran
My One Word...
A word so good
if improperly spelt
sounds ugly;
if unwisely uttered
turns obscene;
if left undressed
invites unwanted
criticism and insult…
if inadvertently mailed
with no intentions
bad in mind,
its sincerity
often gets questioned…
sincerity once put
on test or doubt,
you can not
prove its integrity
on paper or print!
my one word…
oh! my God!
is this much weird?
my this world!

a very thought provoking word. its true a word carries so much value and weight but we don't realize this allthe time. well done.
The power of words is indeed awesome and their effects on people, on generations and on nations unquestioned. Coming to mind at the moment is Martin Luther King's ' I Have a Dream' and Nehru's 'Tryst with With Destiny'.
Ultimately it is a word that makes or mars! Let us help ever and hurt never with the omnipotent WORD!
