Poetry
Communication
By Buchan
26 June 2006
25% of American people are alone(No one to confide in)  Perhaps we should all communicate more. (Physically )  not just by e.mail. and reviews.

                                       It's no new but it's great
                                       Simply to communicate,
                              To speak the words and understand
                                Like holding someone else's hand

                                  Can all the words we speak attain
                                The messages deep within the brain
                                To say and mean,speak the truth
                                      May of course be so aloof

                                 Communication is right to do
                                 The only way for me and you
                                  To find the truth should be our aim
                                   Together vanquish all that pain.

such nice subject matter. tis wonderful to encourage care and compassion. 
 
the shortness works well with the poem being about physical gestures etc, how something so simple can mean so much 
 
nicely wrote!

This poem is so now...The fact we seem to communicate all the time, through email, or telephone, but infact we never seem to say anything, we never really communicate at all. 
 
You've captured that feeling in the lines: 
To say and mean,speak the truth 
May of course be so aloof 
 
The fact that real communication, really saying what we mean, not speaking in today's jargon but just being straight, and speaking straight from the heart is often regarded as passe, and totally old fashioned. This is something that is very sad, and this feeling you've captured in your lovely poem. 
 
Superb...well done Buchan 
 
Best wishes
