Misunderstandings sometimes come <br />When some words are misused. <br />Maybe, what they know are shams <br />Maybe, the word was over-used. <br /> <br />Some loves to chat and speak <br />But what they know is weak. <br />Meanings change <br />As people change. <br /> <br />You should be using your dictionary <br />So that you will say the words correctly. <br />Offended people may be lessened. <br />Broken relationships may be lessened. <br /> <br />Do not misuse, <br />Never over-use <br />The real meaning must not change <br />So that it may hinder possible rage. <br /> <br />Yes, talk and tell <br />So that the world be well <br />But be careful of what you say <br />So that your honor may stay. <br /> <br />Use your dictionary <br />To write poetry. <br />Use your dictionary <br />To add some words in your vocabulary. <br /> <br />Never lose the meaning. <br />Never stop in seeing. <br />Always stay in hearing. <br />Always give cheering. <br /> <br />Do not misspell. <br />You words should be well. <br />Say the words well. <br />Forbid your hell. <br /> <br />Copyright © 2009 by Obed Dela Cruz <br /> <br />(September 5,2009; Marikina City) <br /> <br />(To use this poem in a legal way, please email the author at princeobed_dc@yahoo.com but you cannot own the poem because you will be violating such in computer ethics, information systems, intellectual property, copyright, and other rights)<br /><br />Obed dela Cruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-should-be-using-your-dictionary/
