Elton Camp Poet Rhyme

Technology Has Passed Gramps By

Technology Has Passed Gramps By

By Elton Camp

For Gramps to the Electronic Age to relate
Developments came several years too late

A pocket calculator was the last he used
Later developments, to learn, he refused

Lately, the old codger has been known
To try to work the TV with a cell phone

A text message he never has sent
Nor any time on a computer spent

Yet, he heard so much about Internet
Down to a box with buttons he sat

About the Internet he began to rave
His wife said, “That’s the microwave!”
