Computer crashed

Computer Blues

‘Twas a beautiful day
to sit in a car
and follow my husband.
(No, not to a bar!)

But from house to house
and door to door
while reading Writers Digest
so I wouldn’t cry, “Bore!”

My laptop it hummed
(the computer’s, not mine)
and clunked and whirred
then crossed the line

and quit, it did
I do not lie,
the blasted thing
decided to die!

No operating system
could be found
It told me so, though
not making a sound.

I guess the cracks
from all its falls
had taken a toll
within its walls.

So, now I’m barren
I’m quite without
internet most days
and so I pout.

Then shrug and laugh
and scheme of the day
when I once more
will get to play

… December 21st
comes to mind,
when we dog sit,
internet I’ll find

So Three Word Wednesday
the one that passed,
I’ll be back to read
though not real fast.

Read how I feel about consumerism and Christmas and/or to see one of my “pure dumb luck” abstract photos (of Christmas trees marching), click here:

    LOL

    Awwww, I shouldn’t laugh because it’s heartbreaking I know, but you still managed to write this with humor :)
