Yes, These Words I Wrote

 

_e_friend has

p, n lost

But at what

What a cost?

 

Once we wrote

With pen and ink

Now it's all

Gone down the sink

 

Art of letter

Writing's dead

Down the wire

Quick, done, said

 

Makes me sad

This is dead

Written letters

Which we read

 

No more time

To relax

Now we're pushed

To the max

 

We have lost

How to connect

Face to face

Upfront, direct

 

Text a message

While you walk

Passer by

No “hi” talk

 

So...

 

Wrote a note

To my friend

“Yes, these words

Friend, I wrote”
