Haiku - Holiday

Loving family,
caring thoughts, great holiday:
cold, arid Ayres Rock.

Haiku - Detergent

Lime green detergent,
essentially slimy,
creates squeaky clean.

Sonnet - The Computer

To liken thee to a Nightwish new CD,
Thou art symphonious as when time began:
New hard-drive treasure from my spending spree
And most refreshing whirr of cooling fan.

Though old age has no force against the wind,
Thou carriest on in every circumstance.
Though anything that harms you is a sin,
Thou never crashes when we do take chances.

Thy processor, outdated by an age,
Will be replaced by faster, fresher versions,
Thy dial-up speed in loading any page,
Still fosters text light/photo based aversions.

So, welcome, Mac, the olden days are over,
It’s for the best, PC’s are out in clover.
