Life On Line

Oh, latest iPad, may I hang thee, From the nearest garden tree! A Grinch, thou art and nothing more. Causing me, endless problems galore! As always, Safari is to blame? Almost a tune, that puts me to shame. Why is it I , who is always at fault? I dream of joyful days of saddleshoes and malts. Of humanity speaking, face to face. And of being social, was of no disgrace! Typewriters and mail, oh how I love! This electronic age, hardly hand in my glove. I miss the aroma of fresh, pencil shavings. Thus goes, my off the wall nightly ravings. People no longer look at the beauty of one another. Pasty- faced countenances adoring their beloved, electronic other ! A ghost faced, global society? Which dreams a worthless vaccine can save humanity? I despise propopganda with my entire being. And on our devices, is all right we are seeeing. 9/30/2021

So true. People live on devices instead of face to face ... I remember the "Good Old Days" too. God bless you friend. Love, Gina

Great write my friend. Oh I do so agree. I long for the days before computers. When my typewriter died and I couldn't find anyone to fix it I felt like I had lost an old and much loved friend. Good stuff. A fave. God Bless, JB
