The world of communication has really changed so much and your haiku convey this change perfectly with just a few words.

Enjoy your visions of this cyber-age.

I do understand this so well, it's because we have lived the tecnological evolution that we are even more touched (or fascinated or worried) by it. Young people are born into it and can't imagine the incredible changes that occurred in so many fields of daily existence.

Thank you for sharing your visions of this complex transformation of life.

Love,
Margherita

And don't yet know it...

Marjharita, JL: Thanks for the read and comments.

Margherita: Thanks for returning and for your insightful thoughts!

JL: Well, all poets are revolutionary--revolting against the status quo--we have been called the unacknowledged legislators (as one poets expressed it)

Thanks for your generous opinion.
