Modern technology, a boon to man
E-mail’s sent with lightening speed
Open a browser, find an engine
the world has everything you need.

If you find someone to connect with
in the massive internet throng
take hold of that special moment
finding pleasure here isn’t wrong.

But beware the fatal error and
hit each key with gentleness;
for hit it wrong and you will find,
your message slipped into nothingness.

(another phrase challenge from a friend: message slipped into nothingness)

Aahhh yes, isn't it fun falling for someone you probably wouldn't give the time of day if you were to see them on the street ??!! This is where you truly get to know the beauty in people BEFORE you judge them on the outside ! Sad but true!

Does E-mail touch upon the heart
Can Eros strike with cyber-dart?
Is it just a game we play,
When we engage in repartee?

No way to know what would portend
When you became my midnight friend,
You took me to the praecipe
My e-mail love, my fantasy.

As fingers touch upon the key
A part of me is sent to thee
Is only words I once was told
But in your thoughts, my heart you hold.

Discovery and Wonder

Two souls...
Reaching out...
Find each other.

Two worlds...
Brought together...
By untold circumstances.

Amazing...
How words typed on a blank screen...
Can so touch ones heart.

And she can’t help but wonder...
What things would be like...
If only in a different time and space.

Silent keystrokes in the night
Sending thoughts of pure delight
Using all my wits and guile
With hopes to bring a pleasing smile

I'll be your cyber Romeo
Your Bach, your Michaelangelo
Or anyone your mind invokes
I'll be with magical keystrokes

And, though I'm only fantasy,
You can believe the words you see
And know they come from someone who
Loves to share this space with you.

Aaaahhh Balladeer - once again you find a beautiful ending to an already lovely work ! I stand in awe....so beautiful, I'm printing it out to keep as a token of "inspired works"....and to think, we owe most all of this to deVine.....( sigh )
