Word and Action

One word, like a lightning bolt,

Can shatter everything in an instant.

It can wound like a shard of glass,

And leave a deep scar on the soul.

But a word can also heal,

Like a balm on a wound.

It can comfort and support,

And give hope in the darkest of times.

One action, like a storm,

Can destroy everything in a moment.

It can break a bridge between people,

And divide them forever.

But an action can also unite,

Like a bridge across a chasm.

It can bring people together,

And make the world a better place.

A word and an action - two sides of the same coin,

They can both destroy and repair.

So let's use them wisely,

And make the world a better place.
