Undeleted

3rd March. Today is Bethan's birthday.

I went to a poetry workshop at the weekend run by the mighty Lemn Sissay. I decided to post the resulting efforts as a birthday message.

You’re the face on my desktop,
The apple of my I-pad,
The message always bouncing,
The virus in my tablet.

You’re every track in every playlist,
Every cell in every spreadsheet,
Every entry in every blog,
The file left undeleted.

Be the last life in my battery,
The signal I have found,
The connection I have lost.
Boot me up, shut me down.
