Call
cold and alone
calling you again

never an answer 
just your answering machine

just need to hear your voice
never a call back

left in the dust...

Worried Moon
Our faces turned toward each other. 
The moon calls out. 
I call back in silence. 
We stare at each other. 
There is longing in these pale, hollow eyes....

Premium Member Call Back
Driving but you still pick up.
To be honest you look like a chump;
You chose to answer the phone 
said 'Call back.' then a dial tone;
I hope you drop a hot coffee cup....

Telemarketers
i have no one to fight with
so i call back telemarketers
hoping they won't hang up
when i start talking shit.
 
i miss you.
i stay in my bed,
stay in my head,
stay in my bed
just one more day,
i swear....

A Cold Winter
As the days get longer
And summer already gone
Time to curl up in a corner 
For the unforgiving cold

Memories of a warm day
Call back from yesteryear
Long fled those bright rays
Dense darkness prime fear...

I called it love
you called it convience
I called it affection
you called it an intrusion
I called it heaven on earth
you called it a sports car
I called it romance
you called it boredom
I called it friendship
you never bothered to call back...

The Telemarketers
You’re loathsome in your pertinacious ways.
Your courtesy goes and your rudeness stays.
Can’t you find other means to make money?
You’re a big nuisance, and it’s not funny!
I don’t want to buy what you have for sale.
If you call back again, I’ll kick your tail!...

Premium Member Erasing Memories
Of its own volition
the brain erases time,
to rearrange events,
or change truth;

an embarrassing moment,
a misspoken word,
cowardly act,
wrong decision,
missed opportunity,
or lost love.

If you could call back time,
you'd become a sieve,
and filter out
all the pain....

Call-Backs,Fallen Nests, Empty Nest, Snakes Alive
A nesting is but invaded
All nestlings abandoned
But ‘four’ eggs shelled?

Mother bird is gone
Many a tuft of feathers
Drying in the winds!


Broken twigs have bent
The nest will sit misshapen
Under treed branches above!
 

Mother overhead flees
Skyward tweeting call-back cries
A hungry snake waits!...

Night Owl
Night owl.
I sit on my pouch at night and hear the night owls hoot.
First one then another call back and forth
You can hear them far away.Another here and there.
Hoot hoot they cry just to see who answers them.
A coyote off in the far distance answers with a howl.
Hoot hoot at times I think they are talking to me. 
The night owls up late like me....

Horrendous
Howling at the moon
Oh so sadly
Running tears across the dessert face
Remebering the times in which they had
Entering the mind of state to find a memory that which was not sad
Nevertheless the wolf had fallen
Dreaming a forever dream
Optimisticly running in the gates of paradise
Universes call back to the one alone
Sadness overwhelmed the wolf waiting for something, someone...

Memory
She tries to call back her memories
Not for fun or feeling nostalgic
Not for a passive recollection 
She lost it completely all of a sudden 
All she know about herself now is what others said
Which is unacceptable to her for sure
They narrated their perspective of her
But what she want is her trueself
No cell in her body remembers the new girl
And she immensely search it for the proper order of hers...

Christmas
CHRISTMAS     !

           Time to operate on us,
            the engine of love...!
            To light the flame
            of the harmonic heart,
            Wake up to life...!

            Call back,
            the time of peace
             and union.
             summon the brotherhood
             of the children of the Lord...
             preach with fervor,
             the universal
             brotherhood..!...

Disappearing Act
You are home about one day a week. Are you avoiding bill collectors? They call here several times a day. They ask for you. I say you’re not home. “All right, we’ll call back” is all they say. You are down in Atlantic City spending all your time in casinos. You only come home when you are broke. Is your dad’s ring still in the pawn shop? Woman, will you please clean up your act? This is certainly no way to live.

Call Back
What if a forward conversation was more then work,
Would you call back,

Should honest and word play take more then seconds,
If lies and truth held more the barrel of juice would be my made squeeze,

If the sea and twelve ports,
Would know how to connection me to main line,

If ideas was passion would take a moment out the day to recognize, 
Truth passion,

At the end of the day would play game or is love treasure,
Would am i tell the truth to?...

Premium Member Overflowing Pride
Overflowing Pride Written: by Tom Wright November 2015 With remains now scattered to forever meander, Let my pride in his armed service remain swollen. Now seated in muteness and with mental gander, Endeavoring to call back years that I deem stolen; Though Joe’s ashes now rest in some field alone, And many, perchance, will blank out his name. He will never become just a disregarded stone, But an additional reminder of war’s cruel game;

Farewell My Little Princess
Baby girl, daddy has lost his words
Daddy's mind is travelling out of this world
Daddy's trying hard to stay in control
Daddy can't seem to do his Fatherly role 
Daddy needs God to take control
Daddy wanted you to grow old
But God thought it best to call back your soul
I guess he knew you, where made righteous and whole 
Daddy trust God to take over his fatherly role
God is the only one, who knows how to cherish your soul 
From now on he will be that one to console....

Earth Rising
The ground is gray, the sky is black and yet
I fell at home inside this other world
I plant my feet upon the dusty soil
and hail our flag above the Soviets

Three days ago I strapped myself into
this capsule with my fellow astronauts
it seems I’ve trained a lifetime for this day
of mining rocks and golfing on the moon

Call back to Houston when the day is done
the fantasy of every living soul
see Houston rolling out of shadow while
the earth is rising like the sun....

Later
Hang on one second
there's the phone
Wait for me
we'll chat alone

Don't hang up
I'm almost there
Mark my words
I'll come to bare

Hold your horses
I'm not quite done
Almost through
not having fun

One more minute
Should be quick
I'll catch you up
should thing's get thick

Hold that thought
Wait for it
What'd you wager
he'd be twit

Almost done
Not much further
Can't quite make
much of dearther

Hope for time
Not too happy
What'd you say
I call back later?...

Premium Member 'walked Away'
When he walked away  He yearned for you to call him back  Even though it would not be what it use to be He hoped; he had that believe that you could try again  That "call back" never came  Just like that morning  As with every morning thereafter He wondered should he have turned back  Just get a last glimpse of your smile  A smile that said you believed in us  Instead all he got was a bewildered face  A stare that had so many "what ifs"
