This is a Poem about members of the new Tech Tools Toastmasters Club No. 2094157 trying to get used to technology.

The Night Before Toastmasters Tech Tools

T’was the night before Toastmasters when throughout several stores,I searched and I search for Tech Tools galore.
For androids, for notebooks, for ipads 1 and 2.

On internet web, on Facebook, on TI web & wire;
I searched in person, and, on laptop
Until my Kindle was on fire.

Most members were warm all snug in their beds
While visions of bean dip and cinnamon rolls danced in their heads. Dr. Pat in her turban and Gregorio in his cap– had just got of their computers and decided to clap.

When all of a sudden in through the door, who should appear?
Wes Hoover, the District Governor with Krish and Mahesh looking for gadgets and gigabytes and connectivity gear.

Then came their driver James Paiget, so lively and quick, he picked up a touch-screen tablet, paid– and, then split.
From the bottom of the shelves to the top of my shopping cart,
I looked and I searched for Tech Tools so smart. I heard the manager exclaim –as we left to depart: Tech Tools Toastmasters you’ve really touched our hearts.

Happy New Year !!! WHAT A GREAT WAY TO START!!

One thought on “Start the New Year with the new Tech Tools Toastmaster club”
  1. This is great thank you. We are just trying to get more people familiar with the current technology –and not throw a “deaf” ear to it.

    Let’s all learn this “stuff” together–it’s more fun that way.

    Dr. Pat
