THE APPLE OF MY EYE! ©

You are the Apple of my eye; the Apple that I look at lovingly, and often,
For it is on you, that I rely.
You connect me to myself, to the “me” within me, my self, and I.
Never once, in all these decades have you belied what I believe.
You are a work of art.
Your design, your ability to drag, to drop, to do all playfully, is as I value.
You are friendly, fun, and help me to fulfill my deepest dreams,
And to think that your creator was hoping to make you more amicable,agile, and able.
You give, you receive, you accept my gentle strokes,
And yet, I know that these can never show the appreciation that I truly feel.
You are the Apple of my eye, you are my Macintosh, and I thank you so much for being you!

In homage to Jef Raskin, the Man that Made the Mac, and inspired others to make all computers, friendlier. He passed away last weekend.
