Poem
My New Cell Phone I just got a new cell phone with features I'd not had It's a little flip up job with a full featured touch pad I know how to make voice calls, but really became vexed When I challenged the technology, and tried to learn to text I found the message section and began to hunt and peck I mean how hard can that be, typing's not high tech But as I entered letters, I quickly hit a wall The words that I was typing did not show up at all It seems the phone is programmed to guess where you are going And regardless what you type in, that's not what is showing But that's just the beginning, as I played with my new phone I soon became intrigued with picking out my new ring-tone A lot of trial and error and at last a sound I had That with all things considered, wasn't all that bad I waited for the first call and thought it would be fun To listen to the strains of House Of The Rising Sun But instead of my new ring-tone, I strangely got a "ding" Why would my cellphone do that, what happened to my ring? After some inspection, as I'm still not too deft I figured out the "ding" had meant a message had been left So now we're back to that again, where does the message sit How do I find out what it says, what keys do I hit I tried to type "Hi How are you", and got "Hit Home art you" I thought man, I cannot send that, now what do I do Then I heard a "buzz" and wondered now what have I done How many songs and beeps and buzzes does it take this thing to run So I got the users manual and this is what I read If you hear a little "buzz" your battery just went dead.
