"Hi,
I'm sorry,"
says the little note.
So friendly and genuine,
I like that, maybe the most sincere
words anybody has said to me today.
But it continues, says it couldn't
deliver my last email.
Machine remorse, but
it did say
"Hi..."

smiling.

Methinks machine remorse is okay when it comes from MACHINES.

Your poetry always has a way of making me turn things over in my mind and look at things differently. I like that in a poet.

Yours is much more polite than mine... It was acting as though it had never heard of Marsha... and was questioning my sanity at the continued attempts! LOL

I like this touch of sad whimsy very much, my friend... I'm glad it showed remorse... wish you'd been shown more sincerity. *S*

And so it goes... we'll continue to reasearch of bigger and better products while the humanity acquired over an x amount of generations goes where? Good to read this

One thing for sure you have to admit that cyber machine sure is polite. If a human received your mail and did not recognize they'd report you as spam and have you kicked off the internet.See machines are more polite.LOL

This was cute, I like the touch of wistfulness at the end, and I like your syllable structure.
