To my friends

/This is dedicated to my penpals over the last two years/


This is for my friend,

who is near and yet far

and the only bonds we have among

are but our hearts and these stars.


We talk a lot I say

and yet, we've never known our eyes.

It is but this moon that carries them -

the messages sung by the tides.


There is music, a little

when the winds blow past

they learn of me, the ways to sing

and to sing my friend in a lovely bass.


This is for my friend,

who is near and yet far

and though we have a lot to say,

we don't really talk.
