The Call

The Call Written: by Miracle Man 11/27/2021 She hadn’t called in the past two years, an hour & half later I sat near tears. The football game I desired to see, the entire first half had escaped me. Uneventful things I had to hear, occasionally, my throat I’d clear. She had so much catching up to do, A ringing doorbell, became my queue. She started my day off with a bang, she didn’t know ‘twas just I who rang.

Jan, I had to leave the room to find a phone. At our house we have 5 phones and they are generally all found in the same room. ha Tom
