Do You Ever Feel ...

By Wren Brennan

Technology! When I'm happy, When I feel unsure

It's fun, it's neat. I say woo-hoo! Or not OK,
It makes me feel When I'm sad, I pause and think
Really sweet. I say boo-hoo! And ask away!

But then sometimes When I feel my feelings, I find a grown-up

It makes me blue. I share them, too! And I say,
Do you ever feel Whatever I'm feeling, Can you help me
That way, too? I say it to you! Find my way?
