ipod: a story

 

Evelyn, Evelyn, Evelyn Mak.

How unhappy was this Ms. Mak!

Her face was a frown,

She always was down,

A pout on the face of Evelyn Mak.

Evelyn, Evelyn, Evelyn Mak.

She heard the sound of an attack!

Oh faint that noise,

Scared but poised,

Was she, this unhappy Evelyn Mak.

Evelyn's mouth opened wider and wider,

She saw a FedEx box right beside her.

It was from her mom,

Her Mom? Yes, her mom.

Sight of this box shocked her and tied her.

Evelyn wondered what this was about,

She bit it a bit...

Jingled a jingle...

She even sniffed a great sniff...

So confused was she,

She went through a drought!

Evelyn Mak tried to cut the box open,

With a pair of scissors she pried it quite...open...

...but in the process, she cut her thumb,

Evelyn, Evelyn you are quite dumb!

She opened the box as wide as could be,

And found fun-paper, pop pop pee!

"IT'S NOT AN iPOD," Evelyn cried,

She didn't want to get her hopes up,

then down, or she really would've cried,

Blah Blah Blah ... Blup.

Too scared to look, Evelyn pulled

Out a thin paper that did not scold,

or yell for that matter, though it was quite silly

and made her laugh, looking quite giddy.

The box that cost a fiver,

Sherene had said,

Opened like a hive-r,

And did NOT cause her finger the-present-tense-of-bled.

"OMG IT'S AN iPOD

OMG iLOVE THEM

OMG IT'S AN iPOD

OMG iLOVE THEM"

Even a 'song' declared her joy,

This iPod would not be a mere toy.

It was even engraved, bought online

It almost caused tears, but my eyes were fine...ish.

When it was turned sideways,

Album covers would show,

And even under covers in the dark,

this iPod would glow!

She kept it with her day and night,

Fob or not really, it was quite a sight.

She never lost it, and never will

She kept it on her head and not the windowsill.

She loved it so much, she kissed it a bit

Love-struck; Star-eyes! It was quite the hit.

She even got a card that said "congrats"

I'm glad you didn't instead give me a hat.

Evelyn was so happy, she bit the card

She bit and bit, and it was quite hard.

The card made her laugh,

The card made her smile,

I'll keep you all close

Forever-awhile.

Pee esS

what i meant to say was,

this present was amazing;

thank you guys.

(i don't want to say 'thank you' too much,

it will lose it's meaning,

but if it didn't i won't ever stop,

like a broken music box)

sometimes, the thought can count,

but this was more than a million thoughts,

jumbled into a little yellow bundle of sound;

i am just so so in love with this thought of you five

i hope you know

you are loved,

i know i am.
