Shall Ye Not Make Too Heavy For Wings Of Fate

A poem.

Listen carefully, without hate in ones heart

The words carried by the winds are not for thee

Carried by wings, they were from the start

The winged words of fate, as you will see

---

Make not those words spoken be of such weight

Be careful with their sharply formed dissonance

Send them not into the air without considering fate

Alwyas shwoing them proper respect for provenance

---

Words may be carried on soft and breakable wings

As long as they are light when started

Like the magical sounds when a bird sings

Leaving all to feell less heavy hearted

---

But the heaviest of them change the nature of things fated

For even a word can change destiny's final place

Too heavy a word may leave your entire life hated

And make those leary of you try to make you leave this space

---

Be judged by words which steered a ship true

Words delivered with a tempered and mindful meaning

For they can be strong and do what you mean them to due

Without, to your legacy, ever be demeaning
