" Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed with the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

MARK TWAIN


High Technology
Births the need to learn new things,
My discovery.

I have no set page
For data input installed,
Blame stubborn age.

I scrutinize
The software before my eyes:
Computer disguise.

To learn constantly
With one's mind and memory,
My consistency.

I have to survive
Lest my writing be reduced
To a mere flashdrive.

Haiku's have changed through the years and most any 5-7-5 is acceptable today. The Japanese believed in brevity and you have displayed that beautifully.

Our spirit always will be a pioneer trying to go over yet another horizon, progress can run fast but never giving the satisfaction we get to cross another threshold an into a landscape we never saw before.
"Upgrading" a poem to wonder...

It is amazing where technology has helped up, but sometimes we get to the point that we become to dependent on technology and neglect the simple things, a very thought provoking write
