Recently, I took a vacation. I had planned to scale back my writing and editing. However, circumstances forced to take a step back… way back. I had no Wi-Fi. Now you may think that isn’t a big deal, except coverage was spotty. So no Wi-Fi and no reliable cell signal. Ack! What’s a writer to do?
Occasionally, I would find a place that had Wi-Fi and could update my Dropbox. Coffee shops and bookstores to the rescue!
When I returned home I penned a poem to the tune of The Sound of Silence:
Hello Wi-Fi my old friend
I’m back to edit once again
Now that the data strongly streaming
Will redeem my stalled plot scheming
And the funky dream planted in my mind
Words entwined
Can finally be published
I’m grateful for connectivity. Now back to work. Happy writing!

Love your poem. We tend to take wi-fi for granted until it’s unavailable.
I don’t write much poetry. Thank you for the kind words. I tend to write long-winded and not short. lol. I appreciate wi-fi all the more now.
Write! Write! No Internet connection? Pull out pen and paper. ~grin~ Best wishes, my dear.
I had electricity, so the laptop functioned. I just couldn’t research or back up to Dropbox. Thank you for dropping by.
