There is one shop that I simply find it impossible to pass by…. it’s an Aladdin’s den, I just cannot resist it. It’s my Abercrombie & Fitch, my Christian Dior, my Aston Martin ….. oh, you get the picture… Suffice it to say, it’s magnificent….
Jewel-like items in the window,
Toys for every ‘puter geek,
Gadgets, gizmos, neat contraptions,
Just enough to snare the weak.
Talk on Face Time to a client,
Who’s working out in Timbuktu,
Marvel, as you hold your phone up,
That she’s staring back at you.
Test the latest sexy puties,
Each a feast for greedy eyes,
Try out all the plug-ins, add-ons,
Corroborate! Accessorize!
Tablets, minis, maxis, smart phones,
Cases make your mind just boggle,
Adaptors, hard drives, games for experts,
Launch your back-up, learn to toggle.
I simply cannot pass this shop,
Without YEARNING – I’m always torn,
Should I buy some house essentials?
Or settle for some techno porn?
I may pass by if I’m in company,
But I’m quite lost if I’m alone,
Can’t resist the latest tablet,
Or this year’s must-have, mobile phone.
But chances are, I’ll drag you in,
And, once in, you won’t turn back.
You’ll walk out with an Apple Air
Or the iPhone or the Mac…..
So Caro, why resist? I enjoyed this!
Why indeed! Thanks for reading….
I know the feeling. So great to be able to feel an attachment to beautiful and useful things in our world.
