Off we go,
Tapping away
Words we can't say.

Tippity clack, shift C.

Spelling words,
Meaning more,
To know us to the core.

Write to the world,
Discover ourselves,
Cover pages, books, shelves.

Wonder what
We don't know,
Change what we do.

Paint the sky
A color
Other than blue.

And then stop,
With a sudden,
Heavy, clockity top.

this cheered me up in a way that poetry rarely does. This piece is lighthearted without being airy. Now i dont know if it was a joke, i laughed, but it may be a typo, when you said "wods we cant say" is it words? Well, no matter, either way it conveys a point.

Keep it right up my friend.
