I have documented my daily life in poetry for over fifty years. It is only now that my knowledge of technology has met my ability to pursue this medium. It is all too overwhelming as I approach 60 years of age in an instant. Enjoy the ride and put your seat belt on...I am starting from now!

Thumbstones
Googling my old friends,
I find no thumbnails, just tombstones…
No skeletons in their closets,
They’re gone. I find real bones.
No latest news or babies,
Only long obituary lines…
Discovering the waning life;
The ending of our times.
One by one, called by the lord,
Their loved ones left alone…
I bought myself an answering machine,
I’ll not answer my ringing phone.
