If the Computers Never Exsit

If the computers never exist There would be chit chat on the telephones and I-Pads When family comes over chit chat is heard Lots of lots of face to face chatting We would be reading more books Enjoying the theatres To watch movies The telephone would be used more listening to conversation Chatting for long hours of our news of the day Just a thought I had Without computers There would be nowhere To create our poetry there

Hey Darlene. Yeah correct there probably wouldn't be much of future poets. So thank God for modern production and civilization. Due to the advent of the computer. Well written Darlene. Peace have a right day! VB Rogers black panther

Its to fulfill scripture, that which is hiddrn Will be brought to the light' the Lord will Expose all before the world, although satan (Prince of the aur) Is running much of this set up, he also is being Set up.'

Computer chit-chat's not secure / for Big Brother hears the whole lot. / All of your words are seen for sure. / It is all part of a grand plot.

Hello Darlene. Whilst technology proves itself a valuable tool, it regrettably harbors certain unfavorable facets. Undoubtedly, the computer facilitates seamless dissemination of our literary endeavors, yet, as is often the case with expediency, there exist consequential drawbacks to its inception.

Hello Sotto, Yes technology has proved itself valuable. Yes it does regrettably harbors certain unfavorable facets. Yes there are draw backs. Enjoy your day my friend. /Darlene\

We'd just do like those poets before us ... write them and publish them for people to read. The computer allow for easier communication of our works, but when it is easier, there are also cost ... downsides to the invention. Than for sharing your thoughts through your poetry, Darlene. Hugs, Bill

Hello Bill, It is good to see you here. Yes write them and publish them for people to read. I read a poem once from a newspaper. I remember reading it several times and enjoying the poem. Ues the is the cost and the down side of the invention.

The Situation

Not true I-PADS are computers. But you are right that was the way we did it , hours on the phone. But also poetry was writen in journals. Published in books. Mentioned in newspapers. You could even say we got more attention that way.

Darlene…I am with you entirely.great poem. The saddest part is until you talk to,or actually meet that person in real life, they are just not human! Worse, they feel free to hurt you in anyway they can,or just stop and nothing we can do I have written plenty on this one. We are only black print on a white page. We can lie here, too.who cares? Nobody. Thars lifeon the internet.sorry, it’s how I feel. I am not one to BS about anything. Even if I lose friends, Love your poem, Pangie xxx

This is really good poem to talk about. We can not understand a life without technology. But We have been without. I have to say that life was much better before, because we use to be more engaged to ourselves. We used to do more activities outside, read more books, watch more performances and now we depend on screens. Not good at all. It s only good if we use them catefully, but not to be screenadicts. Very good poem. Love. Maria

Darlene De Beaulieu
Date: 7/25/2023 4:42:00 AM

Some people rea\d books from theur screens. At one time I remember people getting together for fun and doing other things. Yes it is only good if we use them carefully. love /Darlene\
