Our
kids were young when VHS
Changed how we watched TV.
We popped a tape in when there was
A film we’d want to see.

We
didn’t have to wait until
Our favorites would appear
Like in my youth, when “Oz” (the Wizard)
Came on once a year.

Of
course, the tapes could break
And there were times when they got stuck.
Repairs just didn’t work and so
We just were out of luck.

When
DVD’s came out, the tapes
Quite soon became passé,
Although our player and some tapes
Are still around today.

Just
one remaining business
Manufactured the machines
But they’ve just fallen victim
To our modern tech routines.

Like
dial-up phones and toasters,
Skates with keys and TV Guide,
The once-cool VHS tapes
In the past will now reside.
