A silly verse to make fun of my current situation.

My lap top croaked

How could this happen

Aw well

It’s  was old anyway

I had it for the past two years so now it has to die

My lap top has served me well

But a new one I shall buy

Hmm with all the prices going up it might not make sense

But January the time of deals will suit me best

Away now I go

Using my Mom’s computer to type this small verse

So my disappearance shall commence

But I’ll come back with a bang

You’ll see

Please if you like my work help promote me

As I can’t right now

I plan to release new books when I come back as well

But for now I will work on what I have

And when I come back

I hope you like what’s in store

For I have to go

And now save up every penny to get the one piece

of equipment I so direly need

    Definitely a laptop should last longer than 2 years. I feel its untmely death could be due to over-heating. The next time you buy a lap top, do invest in a cooling system.
