Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Computers, Like the Air We Breathe

     Don't you agree with me
       Computers should be free
     Like the air we breathe
        They’re both necessities

     They should last forever too
        Not like if my car breaks down 
     I’ve got other ways to get around
        But without my computer, I am through

sara Etgen-Baker December 10, 2025 at 6:08 PM I agree...computers should be free. Perhaps we should bring that up with Zohran Mamdani Gershon Wolf December 10, 2025 at 8:15 PM Top-notch idea, Sara. I'll get on it right away. lol.

David Crandall December 10, 2025 at 3:40 PM Yep, amazing how much computers and phones are our lifelines...hard to believe there was a time when we didn't need them. Gershon Wolf December 10, 2025 at 8:36 PM Righto. Almost lost without them, truth be told...

Paula Goldsmith December 9, 2025 at 1:03 PM Nice thought, Free Computer but do Not count on it.... Love your last line. Have a fun day writing away on your New computer.......... Hahaha!!!! Gershon Wolf December 10, 2025 at 8:44 PM Thank you, Paula.

Kim Rodrigues December 9, 2025 at 12:26 PM Well since the turn of the century, they have become important. Gershon Wolf December 10, 2025 at 8:48 PM Boy, am I getting up there in years. When you wrote 'the turn of the century,' I immediately thought of the 19th to the 20th century. Honest Injun, gw

John Lawless December 9, 2025 at 6:32 AM The future is AI...implanted in our heads, telling us where to go, what to do, to whom, and why.....just don't as why not.....for nobody expects the AI INQUISITION......

Anselmo Boles December 9, 2025 at 2:06 AM Gershon, I like reading Tarot cards better, or Ouija boards. Like the saying; "You like it? It's gonna cost you!" That's today. This one's funny! anselmo

Karen Jones December 9, 2025 at 1:03 AM I’m in agreement! I’m limping along with my iPhone which is a mini computer. You should introduce a bill of such to Congress. Not that they’d agree! Good write!

Hilda Greenhough December 9, 2025 at 12:21 AM Your computer should appreciate you and never have errors. Good work (for both of you).

Jenish Somadas December 8, 2025 at 10:21 PM You are right Gershon.. Once they were a luxury, now necessary.. Good one..
