Video Games Played

Eyes glued to screen
Ignore homework of teacher 
Down load video game 
Some rich becomes a tycoon 
Cost younger generation

For the Video Game Played contest of Yasmin Khan

Ha Ha! Sometimes I wonder if our kids know something we don't...I can't figure out why they prefer to stay indoors for hours instead of being out in the sunshine...but, such are the times we're living in, Mohammed...and the pied piper plays on! Happy New Year to you a nd yours, my friend. Love, Annalise

I am glad you appreciate the point I have made in my poem. They prefer to stay indoors to unwittingly waste their time in a worthless activity and as you have rightly said, the pied piper plays on. What a pity! Love.

Mohammad, are you not getting my comments to you here in your box? I keep telling you that I am not getting any friend requests from you at FB. I have no idea why I can't receive them. I have told you three times now. I don't know what else to say!! Anyway, I appreciate your comments on my poetry. I'm leaving to see a movie. I'll try to see your poetry later.

Thanks for your good wishes Anne. You are right about temptation being great. It over rides ambition and that is the negative and ruinous side of Video Games. God save our children.
