This poem is written in BLANK VERSE br 14 lines and 10 syllables per line. br br br We live in increasingly noisy World br Even in shops (once such quiet havens) br We have wall to wall musak and mobiles br Nowhere on Earth is ever free from them. br The mad fobile moan of the mobile phone br Is everywhere - on trains and on busses br On the street and in the park and children br As young as three can be heard using them. br I never knew what a 'telephone' was br Until I was sixteen when i started br Work and even then it took me a while br To realise the person on the line br Was not in the next room but AMERICA! ! ! br I vow never to own a MOBILE PHONE.
