Someone I Met On-Line


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 started chatting 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
