In Loving Memory Of Punctuation Marks

In Loving Memory Of Punctuation Marks

And when they get to Heaven,
To St. Peter they will tell,
Punctuation Marks reporting, Sir -
We didn't do so well.

We tried our best,
To get into text,
Typed at super speed,
By young lads and lasses
Fresh from their classes
Who told us they did not us need.

We fought and we tried,
But the letters came as hail
Like Hell's own rifles ablaze...
Linebreak died,
And Comma did flail,
Then Fullstop dropped, his eyes wide agaze.

And now we are in Heaven,
We’re sorry that we fell,
Punctuation Marks reporting, Sir,
We hope we served you well.

Credits go to someone else. Least said he did not want to blog.
