Children’s Future

Tuesday 10th June 2008 2:29 pm

Dangerous future, children are expecting

Full of internet connections

Spending their time playing, chatting

Without any restrictions,

New language, they are using

Easy for talking, and introducing

Only three letters said, to meet a new pal

What is your “ASL”!

No more laughing sounds

Nor at home, or around

Faces lost their features

While fingers are typing “LOL”

Thinking is no longer their concern

As long as "Google Search" is there

Asking and browsing all they need

Answers then, on the screen, appeared

Net addiction that what it seems

Without computers, their world looks weird

Actions might reach the extremes

if anyone with this device interfered.

What Is Life? ►

Hello, Mirna

You got all perfect in this poem. This is exactly how kids are today. With no computer, there is no life...Smile. I remember how we played with our neighbour’s kids and had to find different games to entertain ourselves. We sang songs; learn from each other new games... Now the brains of our children are not expanding, they tend to shrink-Glued to the computer screen…Picture perfect not only in you write but the picture that you attached...Smile. Beautiful Poem !

Thank you,
Zuzanna
