My smartphone is my biggest cheerleader these days
It motivates me to do more in so many ways
Tracks my progress in multiple spheres
Congratulates me with applause and fanfare
Whenever I achieve any goal, albeit small
When I am slacking I listen to its call
My Pacer app measures the steps I take
My reading app tells me when efforts I make
To read an e-book for five minutes out of hours twenty-four
Various apps on my phone keep score
Of my daily consumption of social media, news and e-mail
My photographs are grouped into memories that never fail
To remind me of cherished moments (and vacations)
My life can be quantified by its myriad applications..
Let me, this evening, track my progress
With my smartphone in hand, prepare for success
