First Conversation

Today, I am finally prepared not to miss that call
Sweeping rose petals off the deck, carried in my pocket, house phone
Anticipating the sound of the voice- first conversation!

That first voice we hear can set the tone for the rest of our day. And if you live alone, you don't want to miss calls. I carry my phone outside with me too, Audrey. Such a sweet reflection to end my evening. Love, Carolyn
