I am the Power

Let me grant your wish

I am yours to command.

I run your machines.

The things you demand,

are within my means.

I help you see when it’s dark.

I keep you cool in the heat.

I help your day get a start.

Your information I will keep.

I bring you lots of fun.

I keep you informed.

When you are the cold one,

I even keep you warm.

I cook your food.

I heat your tea.

What would you ever do,

without the help of me.

I am the one who is sought,

check on every list.

Put a plug in my slot,

and I will grant your wish.
