Rod McKuen once said something that I have started using in my work; "I don't think you should take eight to ten syllables to say something you can say beautifully in three syllables." Part of the 8/27 3 pack.

One gives to the day
All that they can
Believe in every second
That you are doing good
And leave me wholly
To the night.
