The Last Telegram For You...Dear! Poem by Geetha Jayakumar

Today I am pushed to the last In the queue.
By the mobile, internet, telephone
There was a time when I was the only
Source which bind the distanced ones closer.

You all have made me idle..
Old replaced with the new ones.
There was a time when I was the
First one to everyones door
May be to the heart too.
I gave the messages of
Love, death, birth and important messages too.
I flew with the message in no time.
Am sure I might have reached you a message
At least once in your life time.
Some news may be so important
That you will never forget me dear.

Today I am the first one to retire.
I served you day and night
Without a break for as long as 163 years.
Today, You are quitting me!
To take Voluntary retirement from service.

Kudos to the technology
Advanced so far...
And I may have been a stepping
Stone for progress..
I am happy...
But sad too
Bidding you good bye.

All that ends, ends well.
God Bless us all!
