Turtle

You know what turtle is,
It the green creature in the shell that is hard as rock.
It walks slow and runs also slow.
But the turtle I’m talking about is colored white.
My turtle is square box, which is like a shell.
My turtle is old, crappy and slow.
And that is my computer.

I put the disk in the computer then start the program,
It starts loading to computer.
Then I wait for 30 second,
It still in processes of loading to my computer.
I start taking shower then come back later,
It is halfway finished loading to my computer.
I start reading a book then look up 10 minute later,
It is finally finished after long time waiting.
I click Okay,
Then an error occurred.
It says to try again, so I start installing again.
Then after another long waiting another error happens.

How can this computer be so slow?
Luckily I’m getting new computer.
But when I think about my computer more,
Maybe I’ll miss this slow computer when I get new one.
I will always remember this as the turtle.

Because,

My computer is like a turtle.

    I’m looking for focus, details, and a personal voice in your poem.

    Your poem has all three. Great job! I once had a very slow computer and I could relate. Keep up the good work!
