A Sprinkle of Wit

A sprinkle of wit
      a dash of gravitas
    Not too precise
      idle your abacus

    A pinch of clarity
      to seek the cavity
    Where truth seeps in
      where daylight dawns

Loved it ! To quote Thoreau ...only that day dawns to which we are fully awake. I appreciate how concisely you expressed yourself in this little gem.

Immediate favorite. Please send a portion of your brain to me. ASAP!! Your magic with vocabulary and unique wit..is always a most refreshing cocktail. You remind me of the book title… “The Lightness of Being”. Love, Panagiota xxx
