Zooming Around

Strange new world
a small bright screen
containing relatives
as in a dream.

Each of us startled
most surprised
to see the others
before our eyes.

Pressing buttons
we wake up Zoom
and familiar voices
fill the room.

A little awkwardly
we start to speak,
trying to think what
we did this week.

Distance vanishes
as with a move
we are reunited
with those we love.
