Through Screens We Bloom Each lonely night we chat, through naked bright lit screens Building up a friendship, sharing wishes, hopes and dreams As we chat, we type, we exchange thoughts, anxiously awaiting a reply Wondering what the other thinks, our expectations high What started off as friendly chat, something new and something fun Has begun to change to something else, a transformation has begun Through expressive text and detailed thoughts, powerful words we do convey Never worrying or giving a second thought of having nothing left to say A seed was planted between us both, a friendship nurtured from no existence It’s bloomed and grew as we persist, to which we now have no resistance We want to please, to satisfy every desire, every whim To stir emotions, senses, passions, feelings deep within As the nights go by, still we trade words, any inhibitions fading away Harbouring, fervent, intense feelings yearning to meet somewhere soon, someday But for now our flourishing closeness must remain between our screens As we cultivate it further, deepening concealed roots and hidden means Until one day we can unfold and blossom together as we meet Then stand proud developed, matured, the whole world at our feet |

The internet has a magical communication aspect that has never been in the human experience. The telephone, smoke signals, postal letters, did not have the effect on people like the old black magic of e-mail has. Time will only tell if it is a good thing. Your poem comes as close to pointing that out , as I have ever seen. A world transformation has begun. Where will it stop ? |

You nailed it...the net is a wild and mysterious voyage into humankind. |
