You just awoke.....your eyes are still shut,
still can't quite focus.....still draggin your butt.
You know you need coffee.....can taste that first sip,
you wait for the maker.....and put the mug to your lip.
The feeling is warm.....just what you need,
but you know you need more....and it's something to read.
The paper you say??? No...don't think so.. not it...
It's much more exciting....you can't wait to "click"...
You boot up your 'puter......you click that icon...
Can't keep from grinning.....you're really turned on!
When the voice says "Welcome"....your heart skips a beat!!
You know you're addicted....all the friends that you'll meet.
And then you see it......you wait with a stare....
The mail box lights up!! "You've got mail" waiting there!!
OH... what a feeling!!.....you look with delight!
You hoped you'd have mail.....and you knew you were right!!
So you go thru the mail......knowing this is the "Best!"
Reading this, reading that.....as you go thru the rest.
Some you give the "delete" key.....others get your first click,
you know you must hurry.....you gotta be quick!
It is then that you hear it.....you can't wait to see,
your heart gets a flutter.....who's name will it be?
And then there it is.....covering part of the screen,
the sweet little sound.....Oh...you know what that means!!!
"Quick mail check" you promised.....you said in your mind,
but you just got an IM.....and you're pressed for time!
You know that you want to.....and respond you will,
so you stop what you're doing.....and go for the thrill!
You "LOL" and "BRB", give kisses and hugs...
You type and send words.....refilling your mug.
You give your good friend your attention and time,
so that quick little mail check.....turns to hours online!
