Communication Gap



Using words is an art some say
It helps to use the right words I say
Something simple can turn complex and confusing
Often people make things worse in explaining
Maybe it would be easier communicating in points
Rather than complicated sentences with complex joints
The conversation can be at cross- purposes
When reading is only for response purposes
Taking time to read and understand the message
Formulate a response addressing the questions in the message
Seems to have been brushed aside in the haste to respond
We are flitting from message to message like insect from puddle to pond
The speed of communication seems to have taken over
At the expense of quality and clarity forever
Surprising to see how many cannot write
Put forward their viewpoint in a manner that is understood right
Is it their ability to write or lack of understanding?
Or is it their ego and self-belief that their knowledge is all encompassing?
The short hand in communication is wide
Texting words and emoticons leaving room for meaning to hide
Leaving both parties confused and cross
For neither have got their message across
Leaving a feeling of something missing
A disappointment in coversing!
