It once was hammer and chisel, A struggle to turn the page, And a reprint of The Testament Surely took an age. No wonder Moses, all alone, Kept his in a Cage. The Scribes with Vellum And with Quill, Made loops and Capitals Enough to thrill, And in the Great Museums Their beauty lingers still. Caxton Took a long step forward Described a new meaning for Press, The letters in lines, immaculate, Soldiers smart, at right dress. The rolling drum on continuous page Soon became the latest rage, But micro chip had its say With computer both at work and play, Until a perfect copy emerged From beneath glass panel, brilliantly purged. Despite the Quills and Ink, The Felt Tips and Vellum pink, Fountain Pens and Caligraphers Tool, The ultimate answer to it all Stands patient, polished and mighty tall, Close to the window, its eye on The World, Waiting for a Masterpiece, Or perhaps a Manuscript, Curled. Booers. |
