A Poem from Janet Cannon's  Poetry Room at IsleWrite.com

one side of over

we are more than one zip
code digit away now but
we share the same sun on

opposite coasts between
face time cell phone calls
texts and e-mail notes for

months we channel dear
john virtually breathing the
same continent's air flexing

our heart muscles with
clear ambivalence that
divides our flow with

doubts we see what is over
now for me i want you to
know i have drawn a line

thru the sand of my today
remembering our waves
splashes and our calm seas
