Gedichtendag: de Shakespeare van ElaN
28 januari 2016
Gedichtendag vandaag. Het inspireerde onze revisor Tim Cunningham tot dit sterke staaltje poëzie richting collega’s. Le nouveau Shakespeare est arrivé.
Dear colleagues,
Whether at home or at the office,
Answering calls or stressing out over a deadline,
I only hope that on a day like this,
You find the time to enjoy a simple rhyme,
The iambic pentameter or a poetic pun,
An alliteration or a majestic metaphor,
Referencing both winter and sun,
Pointing at future times or the days of yore.
So today, see a customer’s complaint
As a beautiful ode to imperfection,
Every brief remark an exercise in restraint,
A second-chance circumstance to satisfaction And a happy client? An ode to greatness!
A sonnet of exalted beauty
Wear it like a crown, out to impress -
Whatever your day, enjoy its poetry.
