Ode to The Twitter

My naughty brain sometimes wakes me up at silly o’clock in the morning and, sometimes, when it just won’t turn off I try different things to distract myself. Sometimes I read a book or watch the telly box, but usually I wander onto The Twitter where someone is always around for a natter.
Occasionally I amuse myself by trying a little creative writing and/or poetry. Last night I did it all, and the following poem is the result.
Now I’m no @longfellapoet so I usually (sensibly, I’m sure you’ll agree, at poem’s end) keep them to myself but, as it’s a Friday, and the subject matter is, well… you, I thought I’d risk your mockery and share.
(Note: I’m currently reading – and loving – Jane Eyre (another Twitter recommendation, of course!) as you’ll see from my language/tone).
Ode to The Twitter
Twitter is the wondrous thing
I turn to for most everything
From plumbers, painters, cleaners too
I holler and, with no ado
You heed my call and bring me peeps
Who salve my worries; aid my sleeps
And when of literature I'm low
I turn to you and shout and lo!
You answer with your best advice
And I Kindle up in ne'er a trice
In business could I cope without
My advisor's army, true and stout?
Who send me leads and useful bods
To aid my biz against the odds
Who watch and hear and always help
And calm me down whene'er I yelp
Who retweet all info quests
And find me Tangerines - the best!
Apprentices you send our way
And companies where they spend their day
Plus speakers for our bright young things
Thus info which their learning brings
Of ‘BREAKING NEWS!!’
or football scores
Who has died?
Who divorced?
Where can I find a genuine fake?
A Tangerine branded HUGE cupcake?
A hotel for to lay my head?
A restaurant for to break my bread?
A person who I need to find?
Did anyone see my... never mind
How we coped in days of yore
When letters, emails slewed our cure
Let's hope we never have to care
As The Twitter will be always there
For Twitter is the wondrous thing
I turn to for most everything
And I'll ne'er forsake my faithful tweeps
(Except when on holiday - ooh just two more sleeps!) #smileyface
