Mystic Rose Rose Poet Couplet

Technology

I don't need little emoticons  I need sunshine in my face
I don't need face book likes I need you over by my place 

I don't need messenger chat  I need a friend  with skin on 
I don't need cel beebs nor empty stares that say  I'm gone

I don't want technology to rule my day its plastic anyway  
I don't want an email to say  "I'm having a baby any day"   

I do want to write good poetry on a sunny beach and say, 
this has been a good day cuz I haven't googled away, my day.

Rico Mystic Rose Rose September 26, 2020 at 5:15 AM Hello, I rather create from my mind that repeat what I read Rico. It makes for authentic poetry from the heart. Thank you for reading, have a wonderful day.

Victor Buhagiar September 24, 2020 at 10:38 PM I agree with you. But none is possible though I rarely indulge in googling and the like. ~~ Mystic Rose Rose September 26, 2020 at 5:15 AM I think instead of becoming more intelligent beings we are beginning to forget what we learned long ago. For example how to talk to a friend without connecting to anything else but their hearts. Thank you for always being there, dear friend. Stay healthy and keep sharing your poems. they matter to me

Vijay Pandit September 24, 2020 at 11:36 AM Appreciate the sentiments...after a while it all becomes too much of a distraction. Mystic Rose Rose September 24, 2020 at 6:02 PM I agree with you Vijay, it takes us away from our families and true life living
