A poem of modern times.

Everything we see today

Resides inside a small screen

We use our thumbs every day

When there’s so much more to see

There’s a world of possibilities

Right outside our door

But we want to stay on the couch

And watch these screens forevermore

We can’t be lazy

This is not who we should be

We should go out into the world

And see all there is to see

Stay off the phone

Put the laptop down

You never know what you’ll find

If you just look around

Let’s live our life to the fullest today

And save the screen for another day.
