A frantic phone call from my mother
I cried oh dear what's next?
Arriving at her house she asked
please teach me how to text.
I tried and tried I almost cried
because I laughed so much.
Not at her but laughed with her
at her precious trembling touch.
I said I think it best for now
just practice texting me.
Next day I got the message
gggh4pg.
I told her that she did just fine
she asked me how I knew.
She wondered “How'd my message
find it's way to you?”
Explaining everything I knew
of when and how and why.
It found me pretty easy
because you clicked reply.
I'm saving it forever
the first text mom sent to me.
Hanging by my bedside
ggghp4g.
