Default Internet, a virtual reality

Internet, a virtual reality


Hey friends of mine through net!
Not one I know by face,
Nor do I care to know
Your caste or creed or race
Nor religious background too
A criminal or a saint,
An intellectual or a fool
A celebrity or a non-entity
All I have to say is that
Bound as one we are
Through Indusladies.com
We share our poems and hearts,
Exchange our views and points,
Show concern and love,
No personal queries asked
Yet warmth there is aplenty
In this tiny world of ours
I love ye friends a lot
From the bosom of my heart
Thank you Indusladies.com
For the friends provided true.
( This poem was written for another site, I modified it, so some of the lines may not convey the true picture but I didn't want to change a lot)

dear malathy,
very true, all know each other only by the name only,
for some who we could see because of their meet.
when here we feel we are amongst now that is a feeling we need to be around long enough to be soaking in like a pickle to realise our blend..sunkan

Dear Malathyjagan,

It is very true what you have said about internet and the unknown faces. The world is becoming full of virtual reality. When I go to supermarkets here, the counter girls used to ask,'Hi, how are you? Are you happy' etc. But, beyond that once you leave the counter they will switch off the smile. I used to wonder how they are able to switch on and switch off so fast. Internet familiarity is also a kind of Rail Sneham and the friendship continues as long as you continue as member of the site.

Regards,

TDU

Hi Malathi,

This is so much a new age poem - very apt for the times we live in. It was nice to see your picture in the IL meet and hope we will bump into each other sometime. Thanks for sharing your creativity.

Hi Malathi,
I feel this poem is a tribute paid to our IL.com and a meaningful one.
