Yes, games aren't what they used to be,
but then, neither is the rest of the world.
The violence in games may very well reflect
the new society as well.
Well done.
Good luck in the contest.

This is such a cute, funny entry into the 5-7-5 poetry contest! Games certainly have changed through the years, as has everything else. The comedy that this poem demonstrates is very relatable. If it's based on true events, I hope you enjoy the games with your grandkids!

In three short lines and 17 syllables, you have bridged a wide gap. Pick-up Sticks vs computer fantasy games. I'm thinking now of your writing and a fountain pen. Reload, Grams! Reload!

Not silly. Humorous, but not silly.
