Hello, Dear! Poem by Golda C NjiribeakoAlexander

It’s been awhile we shared a word or two
It’s been quite awhile we even exchanged mails
It’s been a couple of months, I think, or so?
But, dear, you’ve always been in my thoughts

Each passing day, I pray for your success in life
Each passing day despite the oceanic barrier and distance
I feel your love, warmth and presence in all I do
So, I say, “Hello, dear, ” my valued friend

Though the struggles of living keep us apart
It’s good to know I got you, wherever you are
It’s good to know you’re just an e-mail away
It’s good to know you’re just a phone call away

Saying “Hello”, isn’t good enough I know, my friend
Being there for the other is also a must
But saying the single word, “Hello”, my friend
Just goes to show how much I do care.
