The Call

Have you ever sat by the telephone For days, and weeks on end Waiting for some good news For your real life to begin. The phone call that tells you You'd better make some plans, As you've won the biggest lottery In the history of the land. Or someone wants to buy your house They want it very much They just can't live without it, And offer you big bucks. Your husband calls to tell you He got that big promotion, Now we can buy that huge estate That sits beside the ocean. So very time my phone does ring I don't mind at all, I'll be sitting here beside it I wouldn't want to miss THE CALL. Lynn Barany
