Linux - By Bob Atkinson

Linux 
    - by Bob Atkinson

Linus had a vision
of that which percolates
upon the scene of tradition
giving wheat grain at the gate

to better the community
by effort of the hand of man
wherein we all accumulate
repayment for our plans

he sought that which one sees
in visions traded for
efforts of the skills obtained
on all the foreign shores

no matter who we are in our
simple lives of quiet revision
we do our individual part by
coding commerce for his vision

whereby the info flows down on
a matrix of delight
accomplishing our harder tasks
as if by a quill pen's light

Linus kept it simple
no greed carried within
let the others steal from man
his objective was to give
