Best Timewriting Poems


Technology Lost

What would we do without technology?
I think we would all fall into lethargy.

I am upset because the computer is down
It's got me running all over town.

Trying to get a new modem is rough
When the provider gives you nothing but guff.

So you say to yourself "Myself I say...
Go get your writing fix in some other way!"

So over to the local library I trot
Where I can hit a keyboard and keep it hot.

Yet, I dread to go home to that box I have there
Because all I can do is sit and stare.

I could pick up a pen 'n paper I suppose
To try and write some witty prose.

But that makes my hands ache these days
Since I learned the keyboard and its simpler ways.

So I am just writing this ditty about technology lost
Because when it's down...my keaster gets frost.

And if any of you have been looking for me
My e-mails won't open so I just can't see.

Here in the library you can't speak very loud
Not the way to handle a furrowed brow.

Because I can't speak, hear, see, or write
I guess I'll just go home and call it a night.

Someone Somewhere Someday

I have written thousands of poems,
   And have crafted many books.
I write for the readers of the world,
   To simply remember my hooks.

I have written from my heart.
   In this, I have written for yours. 
God granted me a writing blessing,
   And in that I’m thankful for.

My writing will inspire, motivate, even-
   Move a soul in a special way.
My work will be loved and honored by,
   Someone, somewhere, someday.
