Recently, my husband and I took a trip to California. He could be found down by the beach more than once with his metal detector searching for treasures on the beach. (The photo is a stock photo, not him.) His search found him a few pennies and couple of rings. He was so happy when he found them! One was a man’s gold wedding ring with diamonds. Another was a dainty ladies ring with heart shaped diamonds.
In my husband’s honor, I asked ChatGPT to write and Ode to the Metal Detector. Brought a smile to my face:
Oh metal detector, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways, with passion and glee. Your sleek design, your steady beep, Your sensitivity, so sharp and deep.
With you by my side, I feel like a king, A treasure hunter, on a mission to bring, The lost artifacts, the coins of old, The hidden gems, and stories untold.
Through sand and soil, you lead me on, To the treasures buried, deep and long, You’re my guide, my loyal friend, My companion, until the very end.
With every beep, my heart does soar, A rush of excitement, I can’t ignore, The thrill of the hunt, the joy it brings, Is worth more than any earthly things.
Oh metal detector, you are divine, A tool of the trade, that is truly fine, I will treasure you, for all of time, For the memories and treasures you help me find.
