A man of few words

I am a man of few words though the words I do carry/carry weight
And you have my word that the day I do speak will be worth the wait

And I know a man just like me
With wisdom brimming from cheek to cheek and leaking out between his teeth
Yet not one word hit the ground

And He taught me how powerful it is to speak softly with ardent intentions
That in silence it's not an abundance of words but a lack of them that captures those listening's attention

And with three words he ended his lesson
His crescendo
His climax
His final proclamation
It
Is
Finished


And He had my attention

You always manage to tug at heart strings with your work. After reviewing this for a while, I almost think it might stand on its own with just the last few lines. What do you think?

And with three words he ended his lesson
His crescendo
His climax
His final proclamation
It
Is
Finished

And He had my attention

And with three words he ended his lesson
His crescendo
His climax
His final proclamation
It
Is
Finished

And He had my attention



Love this!
