    Poem Commentary

    In the final hours before I replaced my Blackberry, I cherished each moment.

    The Passing Of A Legend

    Though you won't buzz anymore,
    Or sound the tone of a submarine,
    Still know that I will always remember you.

    No more games of pool,
    Or reading the financial news,
    You will always have a place in my heart.

    When the time had come,
    And you passed away,
    The pain rang far and wide.

    No more days eating Paczkis,
    With my dearest Blackberry,
    For you have gone away.

    In some ways, I envy you. Cell phones sometimes = tethers.

    At least you will always have the memories you shared. I hope your Blackberry died a more noble death than my last phone, which fell into a toilet, never to ring again. (sob)

    Its often hard to part with our old toys.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
