Ode to Post-it Notes

Oh, humble squares of colored hue,

Thy magic lies in what you do,

A mundane sight, yet wondrous art,

Post-it notes, you've won my heart.

In offices vast, you hold your ground,

A myriad of shades, I've found,

From neon pink to canary yellow,

You adorn our world, a vivid fellow.

A simple stick upon the page,

Yet you unleash a thoughtful sage,

A whisper soft, a gentle nudge,

You help us through life's daily drudge.

Like petals strewn upon a breeze,

You flutter 'midst the busy seas,

Reminding us of tasks and dreams,

A canvas bright, where hope redeems.

A jigsaw of our thoughts and schemes,

You bring together broken streams,

With just a strip, you reunite,

Ideas that once were out of sight.

In textbooks, you're a sight for sore,

Rescuing pages, evermore,

A refuge for the wandering mind,

No thought or quote shall stay behind.

You bear the weight of heartfelt prose,

As love notes 'neath a secret rose,

A tender "I love you" displayed,

On fridges bright, our hearts conveyed.

Oh, Post-it notes, thou wondrous sprite,

You're artistry in colors bright,

A muse for poets and for scholars,

Embracing all, from kings to wallowers.

Through you, we see the world anew,

A lens that magnifies the true,

The beauty of the everyday,

In vibrant hues, you proudly sway.

So here's to thee, Post-it notes divine,

A champion of the mundane grind,

In joy and sorrow, you're our friend,

An ode to you, we now commend.
