Texting Selfie Sonnet

Texting Selfie Sonnet Quiet girl in text heaven, knows what to do, it’s true As long as dainty fingers dance along the keys Loves advances will be locked, like a snap shot for you Camera ready phone so picture perfect, in steady peace Certain is the depth of her wanton desire What, with somber quirky smile, furled eye lashes Flashes and kept words alive, breathing across the wires Every thought typed, lifts spirits high, in ready fashion Those lovely labored hands will never grasp such matters Only love long distance on the line will be so kind A keyboard to replace the warmth of human chatter I wait forever to make you mine The hope of every person is to rise to picture self One last selfie, texting and aging on a shelf
