Analysis of My precious
How precious is my computer to me,
it gives me fun and provides great company.
Switched on it helps me to disappear
and into another world to reappear.
To go surfing the net in Cyberspace
and have such fun in that virtual place.
There are dangers, I need to draw the line
with this all demanding computer of mine.
For if I'm not careful it will consume
all of my time and will leave no more room.
But with my wife accompanying me
from all these dangers I will be kept free.
