Dreaming

Mighty soft and sweet are those words my love,

Sailing through time on the back of a mouse,

With wings of magnet on a pure white dove.

From somewhere, out there, in the galaxy;

Fraught with megabytes of time, on our hands;

We have come with immense expectancy.

Your smiles, cards and roses you have sent me,

In glowing emoticons and siggies;

I understood perfectly, your sweet plea.

Our love has reached the highest spatial plan;

Two spirited hearts, meshed so very well

In cyber land, that’s where it all began.

This dream of ours very soon will come true,

As we exit the rolling, blue meadows,

To speak, face to face, the words I love you.

With internet crashes and weird attacks,
Waiting here on Cloud Nine been mighty long

Come, come Jack; on silver sands, we relax

Dream all you can until the morning’s wee;

Cyber love is the weirdest of all things;

Catching the real McCoy, you pay no fee.
