Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

Click

Hi, there. I know I haven’t called for too long
   It’s not right, then again, it's not exactly wrong
 The time just flies by, and then ‘O, my’ 
   Midnight is not the hour to try…

 So, please accept this call at a.m., 5:45 
   With your insomnia, you’re surely up by five
 No, no, no. Please don’t hang up. There’s so much to say...
   Uh-huh… Well, can I just wish you (Click) ‘Good Day?’

Terry Flood October 30, 2022 at 12:56 PM Ha ha. There’s a five hour time difference between my brother in Florida and me in UK. There's been a few near misses on the five am phone call front.
