Not So Techie

Grandpa gets up to change the channels Grandma has a rotary phone Microwaves scare them to bits Garage door openers ATM machines Self-checkout lines Computers Cell phones Not!

I have read your poetry today and in my mind it is an interesting and excellent piece Shani. I will return again soon to read more of your writings. Love, Carol

I can hardly blame them. I can only half use my cell phone, no, 1/4 use it. I avoid self checkout lines and quit using the ATM machine becuase the one time I tried, I couldn't put in the right amount I wanted out! I DO know how to use microwave and my tv remote, and poetrysoup, however. (necessity is the mother of invention and desire to know it!) good poem!
