A friend, a challenge, a tool 
a high speed electronic 
machine-performs logical 
calculations, processes,  
stores, and retrieves 
programmed information 
fabulous vehicle for learning 
at home and at school 
when works is sooooooo cool. 
 
A miracle to me 
so much data and facts to see 
deletes, if I'm not careful 
and have my mind elsewhere. 
(criticized by those who won't learn 
and say they don't care)  
 
Keeps me in touch with my kin 
can send messages again and again. 
 
But, my computer is:  
 
a health hazard 
replaces exercise, which I don't like 
keeps me off my bike 
and going on a much needed hike. 
 
A pain when it won't work 
can't have too much success 
have to treat it kindly 
for my computer has PMS.
