It’s A Small World

It’s a small world some people say
and I would always agree
I was sent a photo today 
a surprise for me to see  

A photo of some friends of mine 
unknown to one another
Through a brief conversation 
they found a link with each other 

Two friends of our family 
who have never met before
Found they had something in common 
something they couldn’t ignore

It was strange to see them 
photographed together this way 
Sharing a split second in time
in a chance meeting today

So now we hope to all meet up
a new friendship group affirmed
Proof indeed that it’s a small world 
as these events have confirmed

Thanks for kind comments and likes. MC the link is my family. Two couples got talking at a football match and found that they were both friends of ours.

It begs the answer to the question - what was the link? I enjoy
these accounts of connections through coincidence.

We have several sets of friends who have become friends via our friendship. They are very heart-warming relationships, nicely written here!

People being brought together is always a sign of hope. This poem gives such hope to the reader.
Thank you for this
