Cyber Friend

Our friendship has developed
In a way that is unique.
To think we crossed an ocean
Yet no words we had to speak.

Just a screen and keyboard
To get a message through
And from the whole wide world,
I'm so glad that I met you.

We've shared so many secrets
Carried each others loads,
You are always there to turn to
When I travel a bumpy road.

Sometimes when I'm feeling blue
It's as if you link to my mind
For going into my mail box
An e-mail from you I'll find.

Sometimes a card of friendship
Maybe a joke or two,
Whatever arrived is special
Because it was sent by you.

So though we're an ocean apart
Our hearts are together as one,
And hope our friendship lasts
Through all the years to come.
