Thumbnail Tales - One-Minute Rhymes For Well-Versed Minds

By Jaye Showalter

A witty, whip-smart collection of one-minute rhymes for the modern reader.

Step into a world where classic poetic form meets contemporary wit. One-Minute Rhymes for Well-Versed Minds is a treasure trove of short, sharp, and beautifully crafted tales designed to fit into your busy day. From the hilarious logic of "The Midget Murder" and the bittersweet truth of "The Treasure" to the unexpected tenderness of "Still the Hero" (a love poem to a Schnauzer) and the nostalgic clatter of "The Milkman's Horse," Jaye Showalter delivers a rich variety of subject and emotion.

Whether she's deconstructing a casino's siren call, giving a voice to Lady Liberty, or solving a murder with Sheerluck Holmes, Showalter's voice is consistently surprising, warm, and unfailingly clever. She writes for anyone who believes a few perfectly chosen words can hold a world of meaning.

Perfect for a coffee break, a commute, or a quiet moment before sleep, these poems are old-fashioned in form, modern in heart, and timeless in appeal. Open to any page and discover a miniature getaway for your imagination.
