Computer Woes

This morning as I sat down to write Something in my mind didn’t seem right, I put on my glasses to improve my sight I couldn’t seem to find my favorite site, I fidgeted and fussed and then I sent A message to a friend with a lovely scent Saying I was having a problem with lint In my computer. Some good advice he lent, Some information I should already know But I didn’t have the heart to tell him “No,” So, I fumbled along pecking at the board Until I was frustrated and utterly bored!

I really am, Michael. I start immediately thinking about the cost of a new one, and I'm getting mighty old to be learning a new system!

I feel your woe. Love the word play of lint and lent.
