A Shift in Perception
A senior citizen,
Who was bed ridden,
In the course of conversation
Calmly mentioned:
That these modern inventions
Are quite a boon.
Since I can not move,
I just order my groceries
And ask for home delivery.
The shopkeepers are eager to oblige
Without an extra charge.
When I had a fall,
I just called my doctor who makes home calls.
I surf the net
And have friends I haven’t met.
Age is no bar,
We chat for hours.
Since I can’t travel,
I see the world on Discovery Channel.
When I want to eat,
I just wheel myself to heat
The food my maid leaves
In the microwave.
When I want to switch off and relax,
I turn on the World Space.
I think I feel less lonely then my parents
When they were my age.
I walked back pondering,
He had the wisdom to count his blessings.
And had a shift in perception,
About these modern inventions.
