Mary & Lloyd Met Online...
I’d like to share a story If you’ve got the time, This story’s true and is about Someone I met on-line.~
We met the first day I signed on Seems many years ago, I had a new computer then And so little did I know.
I wandered to a chat room Hoping for conversation, What I found was eye-opening A computer education.
Oh yes, the folks were chatting Typing things like “LOL”, I didn’t know the phrase back then But now I know it well.
They seemed to be conversing About a “wave” they’d sent, I tried so hard to keep up But I didn’t know what they meant,
Someone there was very nice And helped to walk me through, Sending me an e-mail With instructions what to do.
That was how it started There’s been many “waves” since then, More important, what I found Was a very special friend.
We began to chat most every day He shared the on-line things he knew, And as the time kept passing by Our friendship grew and grew.
Three years plus would come to pass Before his face I’d actually see, You see, we weren’t compatible At least not geographically.
I lived on the west coast And he lived on the east, The distance separating us Was a thousand miles, at least.
Eventually we did meet It seemed it was out fate, And to think it started with a “wave” Aren’t computers great!
Well, I sure think that mine is I know it changed my life Six years after that first chat, I became his wife.
I left out lots of details I’ll share those another time, Just remember anything’s possible When you meet someone on-line.
