Ode to Communication
by Rachel Hoyt
Happy are the tongue and fingers
Which communicate with ease,
On which no clichés linger,
No abbreviations seize;
Which recognize all homonyms
And put them in their place,
Which know plentiful synonyms
To weave in like fine lace;
Which spin around with tone and tense
Dancing with each word,
Each line and letter full of sense,
Meaning fully heard.

great rythm well said
ReplyDeleteGracias, mi amiga
Thank you & de nada mi amigo. :)
DeleteYes, the rhyme was awesome.
ReplyDeleteTo answer this compelling question;
emails and texts I do not groan.
But I have a verbal confession,
how I hate talking on the phone.
I hated talking on the phone for quite a few years, but am getting back into it... with people who don't live nearby... :)
DeleteRachel, the rhyme is wonderful and it does make me crazy to have so many ways to communicate. Though texting is so easy--it's just also easy to have it be misunderstood... ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, SaraV. :)
