CK's Ode To dah Code
We' ve all heard the cry "abandon the code!,
it's useless outdated, NOT a mod-er-n mode!"
So I said to myself,"could codes' day really be over?
Best left for SKs' fer-til-iz-n' the clover?"
So off went my paddle 'n keyer to a museum,
so those curious of our "past" could drop in an' see um.
I then bought a computer and a box I was told...
would update my station,using all hi-tech modes.
It then was set up,all by my own hand...
the screen it lit up, et voil=E0 Heard Is-land!
I switched to transmit to" talk with this gent"
but my screen read "sorry, can't copy 100%!"
"There's static,interference if you could hear it you'd agree...
if it ain't armchair copy we machines cry c'est la vie!"
It then said "there is as YOU know a way to get through,
it's called the code,and what luck for you!"
"You've learned this art,you "stuck it out"
'tis a valuable tool,there isn't a doubt."
"You' ve invested your time,and besides the code you did learn,
possession of valuable skills must be... EARNED!"
So I say to you now don't get fooled when some say...
"Codes an' old dinosaur fadin' away!"
It's part of our past,present and future existence...
anti-coders prepare for "beaucoup de resistence"
