The Television

A wonder invention it was,

A pride and joy of every home.

The roaring 60’s through the 80’s ,

The  humble box of black and whites

To the colour sets of the 90’s,

The T.V had its human on a spree,

Seemed to set them free,

In an indulgence with no regrets

And a  rage of all ages

Shows, Movies and performances live

Sports, News and documentaries were a sight

Life could never be better

The box went and then come  the flat screens

Making way to the  LED curves

The Mobile Phones and Tablets enter

Competing for their human’s attention

Fighting for their contention

The humans devise their own plan

Thus the TV enters the smallest screens

TV was a revolution,

And its internet avatar a sensation,

Still holding their human in its clutches.

Transformed devices and upgraded lives.

Who is the master to whom?

Time would  tell.
