An Ode to Google

Oh Google, oh Google,
none could hope to compare.
You're simply fantastic!
Your smarts must be shared.

I'm awed by your wisdom,
you have instant results
'bout the latest celebrities
or brain-washing cults.

My heart goes to Google
and your wonderous feats.
You far surpass Yahoo;
Bing just can't compete!

You come from the heavens,
search engine on high.
Type in any old word,
and results reach the skies!

They might not make sense;
oftentimes it's not right.
But, hey, there are thousands!
You could Google all night!

On whatever the topic,
an image you need,
Google can do it!
And there's even no fee!

So, a message to all of
you people out there.
To all of you writers
or stylists of hair.

To any with problems,
or in need of a laugh.
For a student whose homework
was dropped in the bath.

The word of all words,
that calls for high praise.
Let's be thankful for Google!
All hail, all our days!

The second you're should be your. But, as a little bit of fun, I liked it! Some of the rhyming was a bit forced, but the rhythm was superb! Long live Google!

Hey Evi!

I laughed out loud when I read this. Honestly.
How did you come up with this? Absolutely brilliant!
The rhythm was lovely and felt incredibly natural. You seem like the kind of person who can just come up with stuff like this on the spot.
One thing (and I'm not even sure if I'm correct), but I think there were a few punctuation errors.
I'm not going to point those out because I fail epically at punctuation...especially when it comes to poetry.
Other than that, kudos! Gold star, Evi!

You could Google all night!

I'm still cracking up over this bit.


*anti-pop

Evi, this was quite brilliant,
a bit random, and I am not sure how you actually thought this up..

I do have the same sentiments about Google though, Google addicts unite!

anyways, like has been already mentioned, this looks like a poem for pure fun, if not, I would gladly critique it more in depth... not that it has much depth to critique.

Peace,
God

Thanks to everybody who had a look at this. I don't really need an in-depth critique, just maybe some feedback on rhythym and rhyming. If anyone has punctuation advice, I'd welcome it. I'm not sure exactly how you're supposed to punctuate a poem.

Thanks, and glad you enjoyed it!

~Evi

Awesome.

Oh my.
I absolutely adored this poem.
It was 100% right with how Google is used and looked upon.
Very nice style and use of words.
I do agree with some above that some rhymes were a bit forced, but they were nicely matched up.
Very good job overall.
Keeping writing like this! =3

Hahaha, I really enjoyed this. I laughed throughout, and I thought it was really cute.
Good job :]

That was most defintaly the most random poem. Ever. I started cracking up. Really, I did. It proved I have no life what so ever. Anyway, great poem!
I don't know how everyone else was able to review it. I can't. It's so...True.
None can compare to the mightyness of Google!

Hahaha, Evi. That was great.

However, a few things I'd like to point out:

My heart goes to Google

and your wonderous feats.

You far surpass Yahoo;

Comcast just can't compete!

Here, the last line breaks the rhythm; it's too long. Maybe just take out the 'just'.

You come from the heavens,

search engine on high.

Type in any old word,

and results reach the skies!

'Type in any old word' sounds a bit awkward. I think it's a bit too short.

To all of you writers

or stylists of hair.

You probably out that 'stylists of hair' just to make it rhyme, and it shows. Then again, the rhyme works, so let's be grateful about that.


These are a few of my favourite things:

For a student whose homework

was dropped in the bath.

Love love.

You could Google all night!

Oh. What would we do without you, big G?

This was very amusing, so keep on doing whatever you enjoy doing!

haha this was funny. extremely entertaining. Obviously not a deep poem, but who says that poems need to be deep. The rhyme was almost perfect aside from that line about the bath. It was very easy to read through and very true, because who hasn't used google to find out something they don't know. haha as random as it may be google is always there. Very creative poem, and a very funny title: "an ode to google"

Haha, this is so clever! Yes, Google's fantatstic!
Love your sense of rhythm. It's so consistent, and the rhyme scheme is genius.
I know this isn't much of a review, but how can you critique brilliance? Amazing job!

i never knew one could like google this much!!



i love this poem, great rhythm and its just fun to read!
the title also is funny!

i dont know what it is but something about making and "Ode" to google is hilarious!!!

being able to write about just anything is real talent and i admire you for your ability, keep it up and no matter what never get discouraged!

(you should also really make more silly poems like this one , of course i mean 'silly' in the best way!)

OhMyGod, this was hilarious. The rhyme in this felt natural and flowed really well. I didn't see any rhythm problems. But, I can't punctuate for my life, so...
Google is amazing and I looooove this poem<3...It's so...original...
Amazing idea and amazing job writing it...
One of the few times I didn't have any nitpicks so gold star for you (and partly because it's about google )
