Today’s Gadget

History would reveal a visionary,
who saw a certain synergy
Weaving in their past,
present and future
Unfurled an innovation,
that we embraced for sure

Born out of ideation,
it crawled and stumbling a bit
Yet marched to fruition,
with gusto and grit
Can hear, speak, sing and shine,
nothing by chance and all by design
Neither your peer nor your foe,
undoubtedly an information trove

Has in it to make you happy or sad,
without it you would go mad
Your smile goes a long way,
with it ticking arm-length away,
Always a point of attention
for he and she, for the young and old
be the park, street or train station
forever out and never in the fold

Traits may make you smart,
name itself carries it one part
Midnight rings as you pinch ‘n zoom,
here is the moon in the pitch-dark room
Dawn breaks and morning rays shine,
you are up and staring at it again
Second to none and loved by everyone,
out in every hand, is the smartphone
