Part of mastering communication is learning the arts. Here is a business themed poem for you to explore. After practicing with this, make your own. Take some time to ponder your business as well. 

In the bustling business bazaar, bold bankers briskly bargain. Trading trinkets, tallying treasure, they twist tongues with finance fervor. Swiftly scribing, stocks they stir, savvy whispers in the blur.

El león y el ratón

Había una vez un león que estaba durmiendo. Un ratón comenzó a correr sobre su cuerpo y lo despertó. El león, enfadado, atrapó al ratón con su gran garra. El ratón le suplicó al león que lo dejara ir, prometiéndole que algún día le devolvería el favor. El león, riéndose, lo dejó ir. Más tarde, el león fue atrapado en una red por unos cazadores. El ratón escuchó sus rugidos de ayuda y corrió para liberarlo, royendo la cuerda de la red. El león comprendió entonces que incluso los más pequeños pueden ayudar a los más grandes.
