Three short poems by Russel Winick


Brevity

When someone first says they’ll be brief,
Don’t be too quick to feel relief.


Path Taken

Those with honest introspection
Tend to take the right direction.


Faultless

Relationships may not last long
If neither side is ever wrong.


Mr. Winick began writing poetry about two years ago, after concluding a long legal career. Most of his work tends to be short and formal.
