Thoughts: William Wordsworth’s poetry tended to be lengthy and sometimes verbose. Detractors gave him an unkind nickname. They called him Wordswords.
Most people could not quote a line of Wordsworth’s poetry. Most people could quote a line – or many – of Emily Dickinson’s poetry. She used words sparingly and exquisitely. “I never spoke with God, Nor visited in heaven; Yet certain am I of the spot As if the chart were given.” Discussion: What careless remark that you heard years ago do you still remember? Activity: Remember that some words you say today could warm someone’s heart. Devotional from Word at Home August 2017
