I’ve never experienced this

A first for me, I declare.

The ease in which we converse

Nothing else can compare.

I suppose it’s because we are similar

without it becoming a bore.

We’ll talk for a few minutes sometimes

and most others a lot more.

We talk about random stuff mostly

But that is what makes it so great.

Not knowing where the conversation will go

It may go back and forth, or be arrow straight.

We talk about building a castle together.

And fill it with our own special rooms.

Nacho rooms, and rollercoasters included!

Even an animal zoo!

I find myself drawn to her

For reasons I can’t quite explain.

Even though we’ve never met.

She’s like sunshine on a day marred by rain.

I find myself logging on to the chat room

In hopes she will be there as well.

Imagine my delight when I see her screen name

My heart begins to swell.

To be close to a virtual stranger,

yet feel like you’ve known them forever.

IT’s something I’ve rarely experienced

And meeting here has been an absolute pleasure.

We joke around a lot

and make fun of one another.

It’s nice to have someone like that

Who isn’t a sister or brother.

We’ve gotten to the stage

Where we have seen each others face.

Only in photo’s mind you,

but she is the essence of grace.

She is truly beautiful.

That much I can say for sure.

Brown hair and green eyes

What is not to adore?

She is cheeky and playful

and talking to her makes my day.

She’s left a mark on me, this woman.

She’s a burst of vibrant colour when everything may seem grey.

So I’m thankful I’ve met her.

another friend I’ve added.

And if she won’t send me a batch of cookies she bakes,

Then I will truly be shattered!
This is something I wrote for a friend that I have become close to online. She had never had anyone write a poem for her, so here is something I pieced together for her.
