Review

Our challenge today is "to write a poetic review of something that isn't normally reviewed."


Online catch-up

It was good to see your faces,
be they two-dimensional,
sometimes blurred 
or frozen in place,
and our conversation
b r ok e    n on occasion

It is good to know 
that you are just moments away
without the drive
or flight –
the journeys we so want to take

It is good that we can still catch-up
over coffee and cake,
though we can never 
steal a taste of each others' treats

But it was good to see your faces
through the broken connections
and blurry lenses
of a new world
