This Poem was first sent to me when I first arrived online and got into the chatrooms and the more I am in them... especially now that I spend alot of time in PAL TALK where families and freindships are formed so easily. The more time I spend there the more this seems so true. I want to thank all of you on msn, yahoo, icq, pal talk for touching me and my family with these online friendships.

We sit and we type, and we stare at our
screens.
We all have to wonder what this possibly
means.
With our mouse we roam through the rooms in a
maze
Looking for something or someone as we sit in a
daze.
We chat with each other. We type all
our woes.
Small groups we do form and gang up on our
foes.
We wait for somebody to type out our name.
We want
recognition, but it is always the same.
We give kisses and hugs,and
sometimes flirt
In PMs we chat deeply and reveal why we
hurt.
We do form friendships - but - why we don't
know,
But some of these friendships will flourish and
grow.
Why is it on screen we can be so
bold?
Telling our secrets that have never been told.
Why
is it we share the thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see
as though we were blind?
The answer is simple. It is as
clear as a bell.
We all have our problems and need someone to
tell.
We can't tell real people, but tell someone we
must.
So we turn to the 'puter and to those we can
trust.
Even though it is crazy, the
truth still remains
They are friends without faces and odd little
names.
