The Phone Call









Your voice, shakes my mind to attention

Coming through the phone

Crystal clear, “Hello there”

“I miss you”…”I love you”

“You are not alone”



As you continue, my heart skips a beat

“What we have is special”…”what we have is true love”

“your heart needs mine to be complete”

“ I believe you and I, are part of God’s plan from above”



Overwhelming tears of joy

Serve to silence the response

“I’m sorry we are apart”…“let’s try a new start”

“My love for you is strong”

“I love you with all my heart”

“I’ve loved you all along”



While she continues to speak, my heart starts to sing

I say to myself this prayer

“Thank you lord for bringing this Sunday morning sunshine

Into my Monday morning rain”



She continues on to say,

“I want to grow old with you”…”Dream my dreams with you”

And

“Together with prayer…let God's will show us the way”





As I look for muster to speak

I hear the telephone now loudly ringing

“Hello…”Hello”…I shout… to no avail

The silence so deafening

I fall as if I’m shot

For awake I was not

I …was only dreaming

Oh that was so good! The end was such a turn around, I could feel the disappointment. Exellently done!
