Gail Lewis Poet Rhyme

Pc Generation

With our new PC GENERATION
 Texting seems a total obsession
 Our heads bowed down on tiny screens 
 Writing confessions that everyone sees

Letters used to arrive from friends
 Right through my front door
 Now ure lucky to get a text
 It's not the same our world no more

People seem so obsessed 
 With that big Cloud in the sky
 We must all look so comical
 Head stuck in WIFI

Seems such a shame
 Advancement has cost so much
 No one has the time
 To stay in proper touch

 Just a word of warning
 Make sure you pay ure bill
 Or you will have no phone
 To text Facebook at your Will

Sunita U.D Palawon September 30, 2016 at 11:30 PM Oh I've tried to avoid getting lost so far...but we have to keep up as parents as our kids would find us so backward! :D Anyway so good when writing poetry, nobody disturbs me as they are all engrossed with their screens in some corner! Great idea for a poem my dear. :)

Beverly Read September 17, 2016 at 3:02 PM Great description of the generation of bowed heads - and not in prayer. Funny and sad at the same time.

Andrea Dietrich September 15, 2016 at 9:28 PM this is REALLY good humor, Gail. I love it. So very very true. I wrote a similar one in the spring. about cell phones. I think it was called And Nothing else matters. It's a sad thing what is happening to our world in that sense. SEVEN
