Such A Waste!

They said the postal service
Was the safest and the best
And I put pen to paper,
Their words to put to test,
And waited at end of tether
And confirmed it did depart,
But such a waste of a letter,
For it failed to reach his heart!

They said the email service
Was the right thing to do
And I put pen to paper,
That they were right to prove,
And though of the service I did avail,
And make the correct start,
But such a waste of an email
For it failed to reach his heart!

They said the faxing machine
Was science's special gift
And I did fax a letter,
My spirits to uplift
And thought that I could now relax
Surely things couldn't fall apart?
But such a waste of a lovely fax,
For it failed to reach his heart!

They said the telephone service,
Took minutes to convey,
And I dialed out the number
And sure there was no delay,
And though concisely conveyed all,
In precision lay my art
But such a waste of a phone call
For it failed to reach his heart!
