Notes About The Poem

Missed Calls

They’re ignored 
not missed as
I’ve got call display
and don’t pick up
rings from unknown
area codes offering 
to clean my ducks
or open a window
on my computer.
But if your name
flashes on screen,
I’ll pick up at once
for I truly miss you.

Truly it should say “purposely ignored” when an unknown or spam call pops up. Friend and family we want to talk to!
