The Speech

Thoughts opinions insights and visions
Even Isaiah foretold of the now living
Self expression worldly views
Hearsay gossip or news
Saw or seen perception of things
Through our walk or the song we sing
Understanding and being understood
If we could have then we could
Meditations inspirations and insights
Through darkness dawn or light
By our testimony or by our speech
The way we learn or the way we teach
Through the book we buy or the book we sell
The story we hear or the story we tell
Young or old sick or well
Every soul has a story to tell
Truth is the root of the living well
So let your story be heard
