Poem -
Our First TV
Dad bought our first TV in nineteen fifty-two
We were the envy of all homo sapiens
Only two channels, one english and one french
To us it was all very alien
We were the envy of the whole neighbourhood
Invited people to view this phenomenon
With mouths agape, they sat there stunned
We felt happy with great aplomb
We were first on the block and I felt oh so proud
My dad wasn't a very rich man
But couldn't resist this astounding invention
Gotta tell ya, I was his biggest fan
Well of course, all these many decades later
Each household owns at least one
But when dad brought home that first TV
It was a prelude of what was to come
