My Macintosh is not a mere machine,
it has been with me for years eighteen.
My Macintosh has grown up I know,
it is sleek any sexy and it sure does go.
My Macintosh started out, in 1984
as a cute little beige box with no access door.
Now my mac is a TiBook, fast and refined,
with its new degree from OS X U. its running almost all the time.
It has learned to run Unix, matured to not crash,
I've grown too, I've gotten a new sash.
My Macintosh sits on my lap,
like a faithful puppy dog.
running applications quickly,
unlike my old PC log.
I'll keep nurturing my Mac,
for many many more days.
Cuz unlike the souless PC,
my Mac's soul is here to stay.

I think you should send that to a mac website like macnn or something. Heck send it to Jack over at as the apple turns. I think he will get a kick out of that.

Wow... I wish I'd thought of that for my poetry project a couple of weeks ago.

Lettuce have a Macintosh,
one on every desk,
Bella Bella to Gdansk,
Like Roosevelt's famous chickens
and overalls from Oshkosh!
You know, Sherlock wore a Macintosh
and so did Robert Frosht!
