    Family Traditions and Values - The Year Without Cyberspace
    by Jaci Rae

    The hustle and bustle was all around;
    All the creatures were stirring with deafening sound.
    With years of Cyberspace at the touch of their fingers;
    No one could foresee the dangers that lingered.

    Faster and faster each year they would go;
    Till the fastest connection seemed way too slow.
    No longer did anyone need company around;
    Who needs a friend when there's so much to be found?

    With the children all snug away alone in their beds;
    Happily playing with visions of death scenes filling their heads.
    Laptops, television and computer game boxes at hand;
    Parents don't need a babysitter, there is no demand.

    No longer are they children, but miniature adults;
    Being thrust into a world filled with lust and cults.
    The family table holds nothing but dust;
    And the living room center is no longer a must;

    In a house that no longer holds family traditions.
    Sharing family stories isn't an appealing addition;
    A night with a storybook, who needs to read out loud;
    With books that read for you, two is a crowd;

    Social skills are lacking in a solitary world of confinement;
    Manners aren't necessary, no need to refine them.
    Then suddenly one year Cyberspace disappeared;
    And the roar from the crowd could be heard far and near.

    Suddenly people didn't know what to do;
    And sitting alone, they each cried boo hoo.
    As each day passed the crowd thought the end was here;
    But Cyberspace was lost, and didn't reappear.

    Slowly the isolated crowd came together;
    To share their thoughts, not talk of the weather.
    Having not seen a human in quite a long time;
    They struggled to find at least a few ties that bind.

    The elders came out of their bedrooms with care;
    To share how it used to be and to compare.
    How the family unit was today versus then;
    And what fun they would have with just paper and pen.

    A time when the family played games on a board;
    And the family table held more than power chords.
    When camping meant fires, guitars and no phones;
    And being on vacation didn't mean faxes and ring tones.

    When family and friends were cherished, not a commodity;
    And talking with your neighbor was more than an oddity.
    With Cyberspace gone everyone decided to give it a try;
    This old-fashioned way, when the Internet didn't apply.

    At first it was hard, no one knew what to say;
    But soon it caught on and for more than a day!
    Suddenly the violence so often on the street;
    Calmed down to a hush and thuggery saw defeat.

    No longer was it necessary to lock all your doors;
    Visiting with family was no longer a chore.
    Family and friends now gathered all the time;
    To share special moments without any crime.

    When Cyberspace was restored and crept back inside;
    The parents cried no, you could hear it worldwide!
    So with careful discretion they allowed its use;
    But with strict supervision and no way to abuse.

    And so without all the clamor or deafening cries;
    The world became better, no one could deny.
    Cyberspace is an asset to that I confess;
    But without limitations, it leads to a mess.
