Have Old Aquaintances Been Forgotten

Looked for old friends across the net,
most didn't leave much of a trail.
Sometimes when looking they will come,
but you might have to make their bail.

Sometimes just thinking of someone,
can have them dialing your phone.
Or you can call, "dial a friend", 
those times when you're feeling alone.

The more we become connected,
to all the people we don't see.
The way things seem to be going,
we might as well yell from a tree!
