The Edge of Reason

I'm to be married in just a short time - At least I was until my temper fit. I have blamed it on a simple ring chime That rang and rang until my fuse was lit. Now my fiance is a busy soul, And the cell phone connects her to the world. "Somewhere over the rainbow." rings like "sold", And the flags of success are unfurled. It was a dark day with a cloudy sky - A toothache blinded me without a break. "Somehere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly" That phone rings now somewhere down in the lake I apologized when I felt better. The edge of reason's a flirtatious girl. That cell phone lies somewhere and gets wetter As I smile when I recall that hurl. 8/26/2017 For contest The Edge of Reason for John Hamilton
