You knew my ancestors Then you got acquainted with me I brought  to you A whole  new world  To experience and see.  You text and forward Call and search Click selfies so many Post a greeting or a prayer Spicy gossip you do share. I wake you up each morning Lest you sleep all day. You shop and pay your bills Even order your pills I guess I'm quite indispensable. To your children I'm a big distraction You tear your hair in frustration. When I ring I'm often out of reach Then we play a game of hide and seek.  When I'm lost You're so forlorn I wish I could wipe your tears As you think  I'm forever gone.  You've been advised  Not to look at me Soon after you awake. And switch me off  An hour before You bid the day goodbye.  It's hard, I know To adhere to advice so severe But use me well And your life will be swell.
