I had some free time, so what did I do? I checked the computer to see if I'd heard from you. I used to walk out to a box to retrieve mail But I'd rather get it instantly than wait on the snail... Checking my email is always fun I usually get a joke or greeting from someone. I feel so blessed because on the other end I know I've connected with a friend. When I've had a hard day and need to share Here I can find a friend who will listen and care. And to this friend I hope I've let them know That I am always there for them also. Isn't it a strange kind of bond we form? It isn't exactly like the "norm" But where is it written, face to face we have to be For you to be a very good friend to me? That little joke, or note, or even just a simple "Hi" Could be like a ray of sunshine lighting up the sky. So my online pals, this is dedicated to you For all the smiles you have made anew. May our friendship continue to grow and the warmth we feel continue to flow. Always remember this.... A smile is such an easy thing To pass along the way, Like a ray of summer sunshine On a somewhat gloomy day. So pass one on to those you meet Then watch that person's face... And feel the warmth as it's returned; It's called a "smile embrace." God bless
