The Phone Not Taken
Two phones elegantly sat on display upon a silver stand
And my apologies as I could only choose one
And not be a man of riches, although they were both grand
And there the apple and samsung stood as I put out my hand
As I Inspected each phone, they glistened with light from the sun
Then took the samsung as it was just as advanced
And being perhaps the better company, but with less fame
As the phone was cheap yet still entranced
Although they were really both enhanced
As they were very similar, even about the same
And on that evening the store was empty
As I was the only one to step a foot in that day
Oh, I kept the Iphone for some time, as it was trendy
Yet knowing one bad decision can lead to another, times twenty
I doubted if I will ever again walk through that doorway
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Ages ago, at store I will never go back to
Two phones sat on display, and I-
I took the one less chosen by
And that made a difference I will never go into

I created this poem in 8th grade because are teacher wanted to make a poem that played off the famous story, "The Road Not Taken." I made sure to us high level words to really show my writing improvement.
