Online Friends
~ Online Friends ~
I told someone just the other day
That I had friends all over the place
They wondered how I could say I knew
Someone I hadn't met face to face
We write little notes and send out sites
And a few write just to say "Hey"
Then I have a few special ones
That I talk to every single day
At times when I can't sleep at night
I will often go online
There I will find a friend or two
That will help me pass the time
I think sometimes my online friends
Know me more than my neighbors next door
And they don't care if my house is clean
Or what time I came in the night before
So no matter how far apart you are
If you're sincere in the love that you give
Online friends can be as true and as real
As your friends in the place where you live

This is so true and it great to see it posted here, on No Tall Poppies. Thank you, because our online friends are real and it is amazing how often they become offline friends, as well.
I have shared this with my friends on Twitter and Facebook. :-)
