Lost.... a Word

 

I lost a word yesterday,

Unguarded, from my tongue;

It slipped into the atmosphere -

Then trouble had begun.

 

A dozen others followed it;

They filled the room with grief,

No matter then what word was said,

It could not bring relief.

 

If only I had stopped that word

Before it crossed my lips,

My day had been a happy one-

And sweet with fellowships.

 

I think I wasted yesterday,

Hurt self as well as friend,

Today I want to watch my words,

And let not one offend.
