Poetic Verses
Technology's Kingdom
It is always such a joy to have that added help from technology
But could this captivation could someday precipitate a catastrophe
Since its only time that will someday show up that true situation
But on observation it looks like this may need some attention
Sometimes you see someone crossing a very busy street
Eyes focused on the phone not wanting to miss that tweet
With this diversion failed to recognized the traffic's speed
But comes back to reality as a near miss hastened that heed
But what can be seen happening so often during the day
People speeding along and talking on phones as they use the highway
Not only that; but another danger is creeping into that picture
As there are those who also make a habit of texting a feature
Many times as I take that stroll enjoying that air of the morning
There will be ladies too but there will texting as they are walking
Then may let out this gasp of surprise as they look up and see me
Because they are so distracted that my presence will be like suddenly
But this craze is spreading just as fast as an epidemic
Work places too are finding it to be getting very problematic
Because as you stand there waiting for some form of business
It will be quite clear that the phone seems to hold more interest
Observe a group of teenagers who may appear to be quite busy
As they thoughts and attention are occupied and this is digitally
Those fingers may look like blurs as they move across the keypad
That absence of laughter fun so lacking and also so very sad
Who knows when there will be that end to this fascination
And as there is another added dimension one can see the addiction
This has snared adults so not only the teenagers and children
Are now statistics in that growing technological kingdom.
