Winning Poem
Feelings Lost
By Clentin
We once embraced and knocked our knees
Now we are tied to our phones and keys
Human interaction seems to fade away
As our internet capabilities are here to stay
Plucking away on the facebook page
Sends me into an inner rage
Watching our young and how they react
Has changed our lives and that’s a fact
How can we teach them how to enjoy a touch
A warm embrace, the thrill of a crush
Interaction is what we really need
To form a society that will be freed
To stop our moans and groans
We need to limit time on our phones!

Well deserved winner
Absolutely love this.
Simple but so sadly true.
Humanity has pulled apart, and human touch is very lacking.
