Notes About The Poem

Smartphone

There was a witch named Mary Fitch
that had an awful itch
to ditch her old phone
for the latest smartphone.
The sales person had given her a pitch
to switch
it did not matter which.
She had twitched
flinched
at getting a loan,
but she wanted to make the phone her own.
She was not rich,
hated to spend a lot of money;
it had not been funny
if there had been a glitch
in the phone which
would not have been,
yet she understood.
She had been bewitched,
broke the itch, ditched
switched.
She wasn't rich,
but she felt rich
with her new smartphone
that was her very own.

Excellent poem Eve! Creative and well written. I see your comment below about hitting your head. I am so sorry to hear that. I know what having concussions is like. I hope you will be ok :)

I just ditched my old flip-phone for a smartphone and I am lost. I fell two weeks ago and hit my head and I think I injured my tailbone on my kitchen ceramic tile and I couldn't function to work the stupid thing. I thank God I didn't pass-out just saw stars with a big softball size bump.
