Across the mighty oceans <br />in lands far away, <br />sprits touch one another <br />in so many ways. <br />They see not each other <br />except through photographs, <br />images of faces <br />they would dearly love to meet. <br />Some say the world is shrinking <br />as technology grows, <br />that soon it will be possible <br />for hand to touch <br />and feel the warmth <br />of the hearts that beat within. <br /> <br /> <br />5 August 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-hearts-that-beat-within/
