Sparks leap tall buildings
and butterflies drool.
Nuns speak in cartwheels
Puritans jig like fools.

Heady verbosity
intoxicates
when hopeless romantic
meets existential basket-case....

Every eatery we frequent, us guys are a hit
Greeted with big hugs, the owners transmit
Feel really at home
Likely my shiny dome
Or Cathy's verbosity and my earthshaking wit...

Takes only a jiffy to achieve such verbosity
Readers enjoy them too
They shoo away the blues
Help you deal with life's issues copiously...

left looks for defects
        the right all things imperfect 
             blame the weak effect
             loud verbosity inflects 
           propaganda hate infects

Vocabulary is
 Vital to all language
 Voiced or when written down
 Verbosity can be
 Very annoying in
 Various settings in
 Verbose conversations

verbosity and complexity in speech
mind-centric, puts heart out of reach
instead oh hermit, become like a flower
whose ineffable fragrance doth empower
without any effort employed on is part
sublime effervescence, a work of art...

Obviously this man's got lotsa time to devote totally
To actively pursuing this rewarding endeavor called poetry
Meeting folks of like minds
Sharing passions in kind
At my stage in life nothing equals my verbosity...

It's a crime that brevity
is ruined by the boor
who wallows in verbosity
'til I can bear no more!

Be brief in your delivery,
is all that I would stress,
essentials are what's needed
not the ramblings of excess.

If you're prone to be loquacious
best avoid my company;
long-winded dissertations
bring the devil out in me!...

Reminding yourself to breathe
as the stratosphere is falling,
imagine verses tumbling
midst downpours' dissension
sans sentimentality's
         loquacious language,
and the land is left barren 
    as verbosity disintegrates 
and emotions wholly perish
    'neath fickle cloudbursts
               of poetry's extinction...

All Said and Done
Dr. James E. Martin
©January, 2013

When it is all said and done,
And there is nothing more to say,
They seem to have so much fun
Rambling on anyway.

The content of their speech is nil.
Yet talking they continue to do.
They seems to be such a thrill
In saying absolutely new.

Sound like anyone you know?
If not you surely will.
When there is no one their verbosity to show
They will yet be talking still....

brevity

[Brevette form]
The Brevette, created by Emily Romano consists of a subject (noun), verb, and object (noun), in this exact order. The verb should show an ongoing action. This is done by spacing out the letters  in the verb. There are only three words in the poem, giving it the title Brevette.

Phrases.

Well I never.
Eee by gum.
Well I go to the foot of our stairs.
Gan away wi yu.
And many more.

Are said, out door.
Quite a bore.
Up North.
Spoken with relish.
And verbosity.
Resound in the closetry.

Maybe they have nowt to say.
And these phrases make their day.
Maybe they never went to school.
Or learned what to say.
When you say them.
They make your day.
