Ode to the Typewriter

An ode to the typewriter
You ancient machine
Pulled you out from the dusty corner
And wiped you clean

Heavy and bulky
Obnoxious and a pain
But something endearing
About you all the same



You "eep" and "bloop"
And make noise galore
You have gadgets and gizmos
But not sure what they're for

Clickety clack
Away you go
Tappety-tap
I'm on a roll


Ziiiiip! I pulled and
Out comes the paper
Slide in another
With the ease of a lever

Ah, so sad
I must put you away
But no worries I'll pull you out
And use you again someday
