She Calls

shrilly she calls him
he stares blankly into space
again the call comes
he smiles while contemplating
what he might have for dessert

Ha! Oh, the possibilites. Um, I don't usual play tag, but I thought you might like to take a gander at my sonnet, The Song of Deborah... did I capture her? Not an easy thing to do! So many layers! Smiles from Cyndi
