Oh Perl! The language of codes obscure, That poets and coders alike adore, With symbols and syntax so complex, A labyrinth of expressions to perplex. The strings and arrays, the hashes and more, In Perl they come to life with great uproar, A language so powerful and so vast, It can conquer any task, first or last. Perl, the magic of regex at hand, A tool for the skilled to understand, To match and parse and substitute, A true wizardry, hard to refute. In Perl, a world of modules you'll find, Each one a treasure, a gem to unwind, A library of functions, so immense, It makes all other languages seem senseless. Oh Perl, your beauty lies in your flaws, Your quirks and idiosyncrasies, without pause, For those who know you, you're a dear friend, A language that will never, ever bend.
