Showing the Way

A text I received with emojis Exploding all over the screen Was, to me, something new But I had not a clue How to replicate what I had seen. My granddaughter sent me the message. I asked her then just what to do. She’s a pro at this stuff (Her eight years is enough) So she showed me the tips that she knew. When a friend later texted some info - Good news she’d been hoping to hear - I chose faces with grins So my answer begins With them floating and sending some cheer. Soon she called me and asked me to teach her How to do such a magical thing. I explained what to press And voila! with success On her phone, smiles and hearts she can fling. Though it’s true that age brings with it wisdom, Technology favors the young. So to grandkids I say, Thanks for showing the way And your praises deserve to be sung.
