OH!  Computers!







Oh computers!  

A love hate relationship

if ever there was one.

From the glow of the screen

we seek information.

Communication, computations.

Moving money, making money

spending here and there online.

Our workload eased, input by

the tap tap tapping of keys.

Alas!  To our frustration

the 'error' window appears.

Our dreaded fear arises.

No sounds escapes as you utter--

"Did you save?  Did you SAVE???"

An hour's work down the drain.

Love and hate, oh but right now,

don't you hate computers?

And the perfect use for them, I must say. Three weeks ago I crashed my OWN computer by following some emailed instructions. I hate computers!!! But I spend so much time on them, because I LOVE THEM. LOL What can I add, you said it all.
