Dominique Webb Poet Heroic Couplet

We Thank You Steve Jobs

This Christmas time, thanks for the Mac Plus, 
For conceiving of the desktop for all of us, 
For the graphics of the Classic, the SE/30 desired, 
And for the separate LC II’s computer, most admired.  

For the coloured iMacs, orange backs, green, 
Red, white and blue, so fashionably keen,
And for that round iMac, with hub staring white, 
Not shut down until things got awkward and tight. 

But, ah, that iPod, your ingenuity streaks aloud, 
Put into your pocket for a personal sound wowed;
No more the silent hill walker, but with a crowd, 
That harmonious music within which you shroud. 

And then the easy access iPhone, desktop mimicked,
A touch, a tap, and your there in minutes having flicked, 
You left us with the 5, so how could Tim Cook diverge,
From that path of service which is so reason’s converge.
