Little Green Light


Surfing with the Beach Boys, surfing on the net,

in my little deuce coup, or a shiny new corvette,

stopping for some burgers, or maybe some spaghet,

riding on a surfboard, or a fancy water jet


stopping at a music site, or a page of porn,

did this all happen, before you were even born,

now you're at the chat site, looking so forlorn,

waiting, waiting, waiting, all you can say is darn


waiting for you girlfriend, or your boyfriend all night,

wondering if they might have, missed the early flight,

then it finally happens, your heart jumps with delight,

right there in front of you, is the flash of little green light


you just cant wait to say, I'm so glad you're here,

like the one on the other side, was sitting very near,

you can sit back now, chat and drink a beer,

that little green light, bringing smiles and good cheer

Fun. Enlightening. Convincing. Impact-ful.
Purposeful. Meaningful.

Brilliant.

Now I've basically used all of my favourite adjectives here. :P

I must say you have a modern outlook to situations. I like the break-and-make flow of your poems.
Very lyrical.
Man. Compose this.

I can already hear us sing it.

Very Pavlov's dog.

Nice write.

In good humour this poem highlights the ups and downs of hi-tech communication in the modern age. Funny how silence can be so misinterpreted with cell phones (trivial!), facebook (self-advertising!), twitter (vanity!), etc, etc, etc....!!! I mean, in the old days did we used to sit around at home wondering why nobody had sent us a letter recently...?
And now it all boils down to us just waiting for this 'little green light...'
What a life !!
Good stuff.

Your rhymes are always so catchy. Nice flow in your words, too. I'm guessing the "flash of green light" signifies someone's willing to chat on this online site you're referring to. I like this poem, again you threw in some comical lines that made me chuckle, especially the second stanza... lol.
