Lonely Day

Twas a sad and lonely day,
No,
not cause a friend had passed away.
Twas a sad and lonely night,
No,
not cause my love had taken flight.
What to do on such a day,
Where to go,
what to say?
Wandering the rooms
from here to there,
friends I have
I know not where.
Leave my home
go take a ride,
but oh so lonely
when back inside.
Wireless call
to pass the time,
but telephone talk
not my line.
Watch TV
then read a book
still tis
though
a lonely time,
cause my computer's
not online.

Tired of working on a book , I switch to poetry, mostly humor, and try to keep my guitar going. your command of words I like . a very good job.thanks for posting, lefty

Love this one Mark!! Everyone can relate to a lonely day, you look everywhere and no one can play...Computers have become our best friends and when they are down we become lost and don't know what to do. I think having a lonely day without internet is good for the soul. Step outside and become one with nature. I pray for a lonely day when I can just sleep and eat junk food in bed lol...I am happy to see you are back online cause I would have missed you!! Your friend ~Chessly

Look on the bright side, your carrier now owes you a rebate, unless of course you computer actually crapped out and now you can get a new one and deal with the re-creation of all your cookies and address book reconstructing, and praying that your last backup preserved what you really want. Hmmmmmm thanks for the public service announcement! Patrick

Whew. . .it's true of me too. When I can't use the computer, the angst hits hard. Read "The Machine Stops" by E.M. Forster (written around 1912)--frightening foresight!

I think these days, everyone in the WORLD can relate. I know when my computer is not online, I feel helpless and completely lost. It's crazy that it has come to that. Great poem!

Chris has the right idea. It's a pleasant relief at times as long as it can be fixed without too much cost involved.

I know how you feel! Although I had a lonely day, it was fun. I spent the day just dancing around the house by myself to one of my old John Denver albums! Anyway, It's a great poem I can relate to, Mark~
