After : Typewriter by Matthew Francis


After  :  Typewriter by Matthew Francis

Gone are those days of typewriter
old fashioned and naughty cumbersome,
but then for a beginner like me,
no  other  go and choice.

With the advancement of  technology, we  have
Computers,desktop and  laptop and palm top-
All doing the same  task in their own way,
depending upon our efficiency ,dexterity on key board .

Smith corona  and “baby-grand workings” had its
day and  slow with replacement with  key board
of grand stature with multiple scores  these days.

Yes,verily true:

“What was struck here could never be unstruck,..”
I recall how often the papers and caught in-between
And  silver lever dancing to and  fro, trying your
Patience  and  creativity aura.  Carbon  and  “ribbon smudge”
Had frequent playouts ,but I still enjoyed their
Jaunty streaks.     Now shift tabs are  questioning
Our preference wait for an answer. Google  and  you tube
And WordPad  and  notepad and  thessarus -how can
You name them ? excavations or excursions into?
Now my lap top with me in flight enjoying  all
Privileges  and prerogatives .
