Writing A Poem Using The Speed Of Light Poem by RIC BASTASA

she thinks i am writing poems using the speed of light
could be
if you speak of fast as fast

but it is not that really
i write because you feel light
or just so right
because i see
a certain light
and i do not want it
to pass me by
just like that

like the light that i see in the cyber eyes
of a friend
from a very far away land

canada? is it far away?
not really
it is just a click away,
even like a wink
from an eye that would be so friendly

believe me
close your eyes
and i am there
in a speed of light
laughing
with you
