I live in Australia and have been blessed with a wonderful email friend from Italy. We are both attached and our relationship is based purely on friendship. The poem is exactly how we began - after one month and emailing daily.

This poem originally was published in Friendship Poems - Poems about Cyber Friends

One Night On The Net
One night on the Net I was looking around
I found a chat room with people abound

I vaguely recall a short chat with you
A penfriend you'd like, and you spoke English too

I recall your name Davide from somewhere remote
The next day we emailed a short little note

Italian you were, and English your strength
So writing became quite frequent at length

I now know you quite well, and you also know me
A special friendship of trust, care and honesty

One day I am sure we will meet my good friend
So I say to you Ciao and much affetto I send . . .

    I love this simple poem and can relate totally to it. I myself search the net in chat rooms often and have meet some wonderful people who are now some of my closest friends. It is very exciting to have a friend overseas who I have never meet but who I have a lot in common with. I love to hear of other peoples experiences and learning that others like myself have formed new friendships through the internet always makes me smile. Thanks for your poem, I like it a lot and wish you well in the future.

    Some of the best friendships have been formed via the net. The poem reflects those special friendships that can be built without ever having seen a person. In fact they are sometimes some of the strongest of friendships because the words shared have came directly from the heart! Thanks for such a great poem!
