Ode to THE IPOD
March 14, 2011
IPOD you are my light
in the darkness figuratively
and oftentimes literally.
For every moment you provide an album
some of which have caressed
my ears many times
others are hidden gems
unknown until they are discovered
fresh and knew amongst well loved classics.
IPOD when I put you on shuffle
you become the worlds best
radio station, commercial free
and tailored to my exact range
of musical taste.
IPOD you are my bedtime companion
my entertainer forcing me to smile
in the midst of my blackest moods
when all feels as if it is in ruins
you provide the perfect accompaniment
to my wallowing or sometimes
they lift me to a place where the music is so good
only the soulless could wallow there.
IPOD in a world with you
the world can only ever get me so down.
