“Spells” is a poem about the magic and power that words can have over us.
Words are like little magic spells
You cast them by the tongue or the pen
Or by swipe of a finger or stroke of key
Words of anger and hate
Are like black magic
They can make things
Wither and die
Spirits crumble
And beauty waste away
Words of kindness and love
Are like the whitest magic
Make life and all in it bloom
Grow and flourish
Heals the wounds
And rights the wrongs
Cast so freely
And often
With so little thought
We must not forget
That words are magic
We are all wizards
And witches of wit.
