PLEASE CALL!

by Joan Serratelli

PLEASE CALL
I'm worried
about you

PLEASE CALL
before I start
to cry

PLEASE CALL
I need this
feeling to stop

PLEASE CALL
before I cry
even more

PLEASE CALL
CALL NOW
PLEASE CALL

PLEASE CALL
Before I die...
...she called!

I can live again
until tomorrow
when my mind once again
SCREAMS...PLEASE CALL!

Author's Note: Ah...the life of an "empty nester" waiting for her child(ren) to call!
