Notes About The Poem

Turbotax

Turbo Tax - (Sing to the tune, "Jingle Bells," refrain only)


My TurboTax, dear TurboTax—
Oh, what a friend you are!
I enter facts, you process facts—
You are my shining star!

No need to think what I must do—
Just type my numbers in!
Behind my screen your magic works
To help me lose or win.

Income, deductions, interest too
Go right into their place,
Added, subtracted, multiplied
And saved in the right space.

I log off soon to take a break,
And then when I return,
You jump to where I had left off—
No need for my concern!

You check for errors off and on,
So quick to verify;
I am so very happy you
Make sure my numbers fly!

The end result, I hold my breath—
Refund?  Or do I owe?
With all tax-saving tips, you find,
I should get back some dough!

A great entry for the contest Sandra. Makes me want to inquire about them. They should pay you for the free advertising! Loved it!

Thanks for stopping by, Connie, and I am pleased you like it! I do our income tax filing, and this program has saved us so much over the past ten years! Before I started using it, the accountant was charging $500 to do it for us, and they use the same program! Very user-friendly! Anyway, hope Lyric Man likes it! Hugs, Sandra
