Oh Little Poem With Two Days Left

 

(Suddenly realising it was the 28th I wrote this in a hurry. I seem to have a habit of conversing with inanimate objects. Am I lacking friends? Thalia and I often have chin-wags. She's a great friend. Never tells me off. Is she real or inanimate? Hmm....)

 

 

I am a little poem

On view for two more days

When I will then be bundled off

Archived, and put away

 

What next? little poem of 2 day's freedom?....

 

Tell the WOLer powers that be

To treat me tenderly

When archive monster tells them to

Go, get rid of me

 

I'm sure it's a nice monster little poem.....

 

I just don't trust technology

To archive me with care

I want a pair of human hands

'Cause humans, you do care

 

It's called progress little poem....

 

If robots and machines are

Replacing what you do

Will human contact also go?

I hope not....

 

I'm sure you will be archived with care little poem.

The WOL Board have a very kind archive monster

This new month of Feb 2020
Left us sooner than it came
Hope's were high but nothing came by
March is on it's way enter 2020 like soldiers brave
Hope's renewed, may be it's the month to date?

I couldn't find a picture of the archive monster WOL Board to help reassure our little poem that is a nice one. You must keep it well hidden. Even Google couldn't find it
