living love

dancing to their song
eyes flickering with passion
the night too fleeting

II.

a faithful promise
of harmonic convergence
binding him to her

III.

singing a duet
as the days pass too quickly
lifted by their song

IV.

breathing in true joy
between the tiny moments
two hearts forever

About The Sound of Brilliance

Written by Susi Bocks, Editor-in-Chief, The Short of It

My love for micro-poetry became evident in 2019 as I was constantly drawn to people on WordPress who could succinctly write such memorable and heartfelt expressions. What I also noticed was that many either didn’t have a lot of followers or getting their content read. I wanted to change that, and so, The Short of It was launched. January 2020, I began accepting submissions for poetry and stories which were written in fewer than 150 words. In February 2020, the first featured artist was Goff James. During that year, I was able to present forty other poets and writers. It became an important addition to my own blog writings, garnering a small but ever-growing following. Submissions closed at the end of December of that year and work on the anthology began. 120 pieces were selected for it and on April 22, 2021, the anthology went live on Amazon.
