One of Melody’s synonyms is Refrain which inspired this micro-poem:
Refrain
He thought to himself
In the moment between
Circumstance
And the need to respond to
Consequence
So that the one thing
He could not do was
Refrain
How do I love words? Let me count the synonyms!

The aspect of Concinnity which makes it so uniquely elegant is the razor sharp concision of its meaning. There just aren’t a whole lot of words synonymous with the harmonious composition of rational discussion. Only one of the six most “relevant” synonyms really even appeals to me. According to thesaurus.com these are arrangement, chord, composition, melody, tune, and unity. It’s a bit odd that harmony didn’t also make the cut, another favourite word, but, hey, what do I know?
Still, that one inspiring word is Melody. And melody is just fine by me.
