The Very First Time

From across the ocean Far, far across the sea We drink our morning coffees and chat Through a camera eye I watch you and you me As we casually talk About our yesterdays, today’s and tomorrow’s Past vast distances Beyond the winds of the world Outside our closed winters doors We laugh Making plans for the future Today It is no longer that far To when the seas will dry The winds will cease And the earth shall fall away A time when I will see you again Face to face For the very first time
