Exclamation Mark
by Sally Odgers → (All Poetry by Sally Odgers)
  
Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook

"There it is!" Diane exclaimed;
But did we need that tag?
The ! mark told us how Di spoke
The author needn't nag.

It was red! or It was black!
(Should readers be surprised at that?)
Real people don't "exclaim" all day
They're much more likely just to "say".
"It was sudden! She was there!"
Too much exclaiming, here, to bear.

When !!! infests your screen
When !!! is all about
Remember - few make better sense
And weed those !!!!s out.

OK Sally, I can see where this is leading. I think I can speak for all men here...
When you start to write about your periods, I'm outta here!
LOL.
