Mobile Phone
Mobile phone
I have lived in a time my phone at home
I survived all day this way
I see young mothers pushing pram phone in hand
I see the nation connecting to their station
I see drivers phone in hand equal to a drunken man
I see shock on people’s faces listening to their conversation
I see people panic not plugging in might be a sin
I feel so sad to see so many missing out present glory
I count myself so lucky dog and bone at home
mindful walks happy talks face to face rain and wind
squirrel’s running up a tree leaves falling slowly
smells taken in from all around nothing is more profound
over whelming all we have touch smell see sound taste the air
mobile phone I keep at home my present moment no rehearsal
