Unguarded Word......Think Before U Speak! Poem by saadat tahir

Unguarded Word......Think Before U Speak!

Rating: 3.1


Unguarded word, befriended bird.
Weighted fell by thrice or third.
Dusty grind, millers churn.
Pummel ears, murmurs burn.

Mongered word off china town,
bamboos morph to fretting frown.
Snared enmeshed, wasted sage,
bowl of death at generous age.

Placid morns to sullied days,
rancid slicks on sandy bays.
Bubbly sprays dash and bounce,
buffet sighs in crannies trounce.

Tongues to airs, wings have lent.
Hath words to many, a gallows sent.
Deadened eyes to rainbows womb,
spured fear to tear to life entomb.

Strongest will and hardy soul.
Char and writhe on carmine coal.
Words said, unsaid, worlds apart.
Volley's sent, will raze ramparts

Unguarded word...agree with you..though I should be true I often speak before I think..but I work on it.. :) your way with words always amazes me and makes me recite your poems immediately to listen how they sound in air, and to feel the power of sounds on an emotional level..and then to read it some times to get more into an idea..always deep and encouraging..thanks for sharing, Saadat.
