Silicon
Down in the valley,
Where tech giants stand,
Silicon’s flowing,
From everyday sand.
Semiconducting
Electricity,
Silcon’s working
In every p.c.
A billion transistors
On one microchip,
Make smart phones responsive
To your fingertip.
Remember this lesson
Each time you log on.
You’d have no computer
Without silicon.
