Thank you Sarah for the prompt reply.
But beware being efficient,
or everyone will start to rely
upon you being proficient.
If that were the case I might wonder
that you'll quickly become snowed under.
I want to see your usual self
'cos you know it's good for your health.
So please go back to the good old you,
who with work requests would often deal
by the use of a swift back heel
(even if it made some of us blue).
Please don't take offence, none is meant
a compliment is being sent.

Author's Note
My attempt at a Pushkin sonnet.
To put it into context, it is a work email reply
... thoughts anyone?
