she lies in bed
waiting for sleep
her ipad
charging in it's socket
behind her
the next morning
she wakes to find
100 percent charge
and two comments
from bloggers overseas
who have read
her words overnight
and sent some flying back
in response
she sits
at the breakfast table
feeling them
charging her up
100 percent
filled

Nice. I never read a "modern" poem before. :-)
ReplyDeleteHahaha, hope I'm one of those bloggers that charge you up! We're in a different time zones, so I guess you see my comments the next day? I have no idea what I'm talking about :D
ReplyDeleteEither way I love the poem! :D
Yes, that's just how blogging works, isn't it? The contact and support keeps you going! Great poem.
ReplyDeletePS. Sorry for the lack of comments, Disqus was being difficult and not letting me leave any. It seems fine now. xxx
Oh no, I don't have an i-pad so I'm not a proper blogger! x
ReplyDeleteIs it modern because it doesn't rhyme, or because it speaks of modern things? Jazzy Jack
ReplyDeleteThanks Keiti Dontcare! Yes, you are one I read in the morning. And you definitely charge me up and make me laugh and introduce me to new things! All good! 😊 😍
ReplyDeleteOh sorry about the commenting issue. Glad it's OK now. I just wanted more direct contact and kept wanting to chat! Still trying it out.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the poem. 😄
Ahem Ms Vix. If you're not a proper blogger I don't know who is ! Even on a dinosaur machine 😉😃
ReplyDeleteI love your blogging poem! I don't have an ipad but I do have a macbook and it is always with me. When I wake in the morning, while still lying in bed I log in to see what messages I have and if I have posted a blog I look to see if there are any comments. It is always a special thrill to know that there has been such communication across such distances. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteComments give you a nice warm feeling, don't they … sort of like a hug from afar :0)

Thanks Shawna! It's cool to think of us all in our various time zones doing something similar. I think blogging is quite like letter writing across the distances. However it is virtually instant! I think blogging is keeping writing alive. xo Jazzy Jack
ReplyDeleteExactly! Thanks for your hug just now all the way from Queensland! xo Jazzy Jack
ReplyDeleteIt's modern because it addresses our use of technology, which I've never seen in a poem before.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely bookends on your great poem! Relationships are special on all levels even steam driven machines!!! D&M xxxx
ReplyDeleteHee hee! Not sure who you are talking about?! Thanks. The vase is one of Joy's. The smiley face is on our front door, made by Mr Artist :-)
ReplyDeleteAh! Always nice to be a first :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, I think you are right. And it sort of harks back to those days when people had mail delivery more than once a day. Now, I check my mail box about once a week and it us usually only bank statements. xoxo Love that new profile picture!
ReplyDeleteOh I'm not that far away from you … NSW Central Coast here :0)

Oh...I had you much further! My brother in law is at Smith's Lake near Foster. Are you near there?
ReplyDeleteWe're not quite that far … we're about an hour north of Sydney.

My other brother in law is in Copacobana! ??
