An Ode

Radio Announcer: Thank you for tuning in today. We are here in Radford to celebrate 
National Poetry Month. In just a moment, the nation's poet laureate, Dr. Pittges, will read 
a poem about a(n) computer. And here is Dr. Pittges.

Dr. Pittges: Thank you, everyone. This is a very sticky poem I wrote about a(n) 
computer.

An Ode to a(n) computer

The computer is as big as a(n) bicycle.
It reminds me of small shoes jumping.
O, the computer. O, the computer!
What do green people think when they see you for the first time? 
Perhaps they know there are happy days ahead. 
O, the computer. O, the computer!
For some, you are clammy, but for others, you are frozen.
If we are frolicking, we pause when we think of you. 
May you always sit.
O, the computer. O, the computer!
The end.

Radio Announcer: On behalf of the poets, thank you for blowing.
