It is strange to think
That an ordinary globe
Can have such meaning.
It is a symbol
Representing what we are—
So far yet so near.
The world’s a small place;
We are connected as one—
Just oceans away.
But oceans are vast,
And miles add up quickly,
Making us give up.
But should you lose hope,
Place your finger where I am—
That’s where I will wait.
How do I know I placed my finger in the right place? I’m guessing it’s America, but America is big…
As long as you’re in the right country!
And which navigator are you awaiting for with your gallant feline?
Christopher Columbus.
