Boy Meets Girl

Boy meets girl today
   well, sort of --
They meet online
   save a few dimes

Way back in the day
   boy met girl by letter
Some chose to spar
   others fell in love from afar

Though times sure have changed
   Dating, just higher-tech rearranged

Going steady meant at least some level of commitment. Today, they're committed to their safe spaces where they can play with their devices. Yuck. (Not all of them, though). :) gw
