Poem
A mobile phone is a strange old thing,
For the joy, love, and pain it can bring.
People can spend, hours a day,
Scrolling through apps, and games they can play.

But life is worth, so much more,
Than making thumbs and fingers sore.
By tapping on screens, to play on a game,
The way it’s developed, it’s such a shame.

It’s a shame that now, people look down,
In suits and boots, and dressing gown.
Instead of looking, straight ahead,
They stay on their phones, whilst lay in bed.

The fields of green, Horizons of red, 
Waiting to be drawn, by pencil lead.
With colour so vibrant, in need of paint,
As pencil is drawn, ever so faint.

But this doesn’t happen, like the good old day,
As people have found, a quicker way.
To see this image, you can see from home,
Just type it in, to your shiny new phone.

Where did passion, and wonder all go?
What about the places, we did not know?
To go and see, and explore the world,
Has vanished forever, thumbs are now curled.

Curled above phones, as they scroll to see,
The places where I’d love to be.
What about talking, and having a chat?
It’s now online, I do know that.

Communities are gone, voices grow quiet,
As phones grow supreme, and more people diet.
Dieting as they sit, day to day,
On a phone with apps, and games to play.

Put down the phone, and open your eye,
See the world, on planes you will fly.
Appreciate the time, that’s limited to you,
Open your eyes, and see the blue.

Not of a screen, but a wondrous sky,
With clouds that drift, way up high.
Appreciate the smiles, you get on a street,
They’re rare to catch, from people you meet.

You never see, a smile at a phone,
As people walk on, to their journey home.
People who smile, put their phones away,
In order to appreciate, a glorious day.

They see the beauty, of the world that we live,
And see the potential, the earth could give.
They see the moon, the stars at night,
They see the mornings, soft touching light.

I ask for you, to put down the phone,
And look around, as you sit at home.
Appreciate life, in your new found way,
Travel far, please don’t delay.

Take your photos, and send your text,
But put it away, think where to go next.
Enjoy that food, and taste that wine,
Appreciate life, so precious and divine.
