Forty years ago
I became a clown
and what a joyful job it was
I was known all over town

I sang my songs and told my tales
and gave my puppets voices
but now today I’m really “lost”
among the techno choices

who wants a clown…let’s play a game
IT’s POKEMAN GO these days!
I can’t compete with technology
I don’t think it’s just a “phase”

For little ones can use I-pads
and Smart Phones are the norm
So I write poems day and night
here in my senior “dorm”

I entertain myself these days
and sometimes all night too
I’ve joined the Poetry Marathon
Technology …wins…’tis true!
