*my answer to YOU, doreen! ![]() As my thoughts return to spring, warmth, sunshine, and birds in sing, overwhelmed by Spring's sweet song, I smile and turn my pc ON. "I must record these thoughts of glory-- the wonderment of Nature's story!" Clicking keys in rhythmic trust- my words unfurl of Springtime's lust. Suddenly, without a clue, my screen became deep shade of blue. "Egads! and Drat! Oh no!" I cry. For on my screen was one word: "sigh." A SIGH??? Methinks it can't be true! then three more words: "I love you." Surely this must be a joke! Then I jumped back--my pc SPOKE! "Of course I love you," said pc. "I wish you'd write a poem for ME. We've been together for a year. I've wept with you each single tear. Yet every word, you write for HIM. You think that crash was just my whim?? I have a heart like all good folk! The night I crashed? My heart...just...broke." "But," I typed, "this just can't be. You have no heart. You're a machine!" "I can't believe you'd be so cold," cried pc, "you have no soul!" The screen was fading--fading fast. "Please don't go," I typed, "come back!" "Say you're sorry" as screen went black. "I AM!" I typed, "it's ME that lacks!" All my words I then recanted. "I'm sorry I took you for granted." "Say you love me..." warned pc. "Then write a poem just for ME!" "I love you! And? I WILL be true!" PC? This poem's just for YOU. I should have seen it all along. Somehow? I turned my pc ON!!!! [This message has been edited by serenity (edited 04-01-2001).] |

You and Sven have said a mouthful, serenity! Love this!! Personification is a lot of fun to write and to read and you've done a superb job here. Just remember, it's all fantasy, and if you know what's good for you, you won't let your p.c. see, this. Oops, too late! Sorry, I hope he understands. |
