Talking On Zoom

When you’re talking on Zoom You are in the same room Or at least you believe you could be, Though you shouldn’t assume You can quickly resume Conversations from previously. Though it has its appeal And it seems pretty real, There’s a distance that you must traverse And you just have to deal With the way that you feel When from various spots you converse. Still, it’s better than naught If connections you’ve sought And you get to see everyone’s face, For if most of us bought Lessons we have been taught, Long time friendships are hard to replace.

I have to say, if I never use zoom, I’ll be happy as Larry. I can see the benefit with far away friends or relatives, but it’s fast becoming another nail in the coffin of the notion of ‘off duty’. And, boy, do I hate those zoomed news corespondents with their wiggly hair! Great rhyming as always, Ilene.
