Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

The Micro Brevity

in a world of information overload
it's refreshing to be succinct
in a few words to pass a message so punchy
that it gives one cause for a pause

in a world where time is at a premium
it's appreciated to be respected
to share what one has to say with panache
and every word striking its mark

being sold on the notion that less is more

Thanks, Nancy. I always think of Cyrano de Bergerac who elevated the word for me.
