    Default The nights before DP.....

    A lonely owl hoots
    There's barely a sound,
    As Miss Artyboots
    Sets out on her rounds.

    Her little heart flutters
    As she flits site to site;
    The sighing and mutters
    Break the silence of night.

    First to the Facebook!
    Is there a clue?
    Take a good look
    In case something is new!

    Nothing to see...
    Her spirit feels low.
    Things offered for free
    Barely easing the blow.

    What about Tweets?
    Just check before bed...
    The chatter is sweet...
    What she craves is unsaid.

    She saves best 'til last
    Not daring to peep
    She clicks much too fast
    Producing a beep!

    Find the news pages -
    Quick, just in case!
    But just as in ages
    Hurt shows on her face.

    Oh where's her new Xara,
    Her beloved DP?
    Tears of mascara
    Flow into her tea.

    The Night Before Christmas
    Has nothing on this!
    Declares our poor lass
    With a bit of a hiss.

    This is her life
    Before any release
    On the edge of a knife
    While Xara's a tease!

    Please end her pain
    With the program she craves
    What do you gain
    If she goes to her grave?

    She really can't wait
    She's at the end of her tether
    The release can't be late
    Come - knock her down with a feather!

    Dear Xara, perhaps,
    You'll read this and care.
    You seem decent chaps
    IS THERE ANYONE THERE?

    She cares not for gifts
    No present can please
    What gives her a lift
    Is a Xara release!

    That's a very nice love poem. So much attention and longing will make them shy and blush at Xara HQ! Now let's hope that Artyboots' heart will not be crushed if the release doesn't meet her passionate expectations!

    Very impressive, but never rush software releases - doing so is a recipe for disappointment.

    Lol pauland. Like Xara is likely to be influenced by poetry!
