The Smartphone!

Designed by creative minds of the world
Gets sold in billions every year, we are told.
A tool for productivity, whilst used wise
The reason for distraction, it is otherwise.

Intelligence, it develops every time in use 
Insight it builds, with information we produce.
Text, images and videos, many it can store
Interactive it is; can get addictive to the core.

Desire of children and ire of parents
Fulfilled if not, the road to peace ends!
In its cusp & shadow, live most teens
To socialize virtually, it provides them means.

Life of few hours it has through a battery
Feature to turbocharge is akin to flattery.
Without a network it hardly proves its worth
A status symbol, it is for high networth

Simple it was, smart it is, smarter it will be
To make it do more, for some is a hobby.
The smarter we make it, less it will be a phone
Will it ever find a place next to a gramaphone?
