It Will Inspire
There is something about a typewrite
Which ends up turning me into a fighter
And writing poems I find appealing
But having to type and I hit the ceiling.
One day did pray unto the Lord
Now I have a computer with a keyboard
And after more poems I will compile
Put in files and folders after a while.
Enjoy reading mine and hope others do too
Be nice and will write one especially for you
To become a poet hope it does inspire
Always for free and never have to hire.

___ Manual Typewriter At Work___
The keys clack aloud
As they strike the paper
The carriage lifts up
When the shift key is alter
The ping of the bell warns the typist
That she is nearing the end
Of the line and have to
Lift up her left hand
From the keyboard.
Swipe at the carriage returns lever.
Putting the carriage back to its normal position
Cause a 'Ziiip' noise scribe has to bear.
Olden days still not old
Computers come to being through it.
It is gold of many colors
That can best be traced by people of its age.
