Several days ago Rick Ross challenged me with a topic for a new poem... Perfectionism... Hmmm... It's been tough, I must say, and for many days I've been thinking of it, somewhere in background. And yesterday in the evening, sitting in Prague - in a nice cafe by the river, with a beautiful view - I came up with this one...
Google drives the innovation
In dynamic site creation.
If you seek for explanation
Of this strange abbreviation,
"Web-2-O" is not your station.
In "G" We Trust is best translation.
I often see that JavaLobby
Looks like sandbox for writing-hobby.
Sometimes however in that land
A gorgeous flower grows from sand.

Big thanks to Julia for the great illustration!!!
One day, two funny little mice
Discussed free cheese, and cheese for price.
The one, returning from a store
Was so excited to adore:
"You know, Swiss cheese has such a smell!
Oh! I would like inside to dwell!
For me, it's sweet like flower-honey,
And it deserves just any money!"
"See wooden plate that's over there?
I choose THIS dangerous affair.
It is impossible to squeeze
A penny from my purse, for cheese
That's lying here free of charge.
And I don't mind that it's not large.
I love this generous device!" -
And jumps, and grabs the cherished slice.
Behind it something sounds "clap!"
Free cheese is only in a trap!
Who picks a tool for its "FREE" label
Reminds of this didactic fable...
This rhyme can fix the common defect
In understanding wow-effect:
When we pronounce sincere "Wow!",
It's not about 'what', but 'how'.
Completing code is simple feature,
But it can feel like magic creature,
When IDE provides completion
As if it's full of intuition.
This funny thought
Has not been brought
By someone smart
From techno-art.
A techno-rhyme
From time to time
Would come to mind
(Or place of' kind).
It happened to me about a week ago. I was driving home late in the evening. The weather was not very friendly, and there was no nice music on the radio. So, I thought to myself: "If the surrounding cannot make me smile, why don't I try to make my mood nicer by myself?". And I thought I would compose funny rhymes. But since I was driving from the office, after a really hard day, the rhymes resulted in job-related couplets. They sounded really funny, and I decided I would start publishing them on this blog, under the "TechnoRhymes" category.
