Judi's January Artsy Essay topic is an ode to your favorite gadget.
O! d'ya know..
I searched my mind for a gadget;
a contraption, a novelty, a flippitty-flue.
I tried to pick something original, something nifty;
something that screams, "oh so very cool!".
I pondered, and discarded, this keyboard, that knifty knitter,
that church-key which is really a magnet, too.
what oh what is my favorite device?
something neat, something nice.
something apropos.
Just as I was about to give up
not in despair, mind you
my gaze, tired it's true
fell on something so simple, so obvious,
well-loved, well-used
my pen! my clickety pen!
it's at my right hand.
it's my write hand.
o! d'ya know?
O! d'ya know?!?
