The Telephone Booth
A lonely sentinel on a busy street, The telephone booth, a bittersweet retreat. Its glass panes smudged with countless hurried hands, A silent witness to forgotten lands. Within its cramped and often dusty space, A world unfolded, etched upon a face. A whispered promise, a tearful goodbye said, A lifeline cast, from fears that filled the...

Red Telephone Booth
An old gaunt lady With feeble steps Walked to the red telephone booth On the roadside pavement Every day she dialed a number And spoke inaudibly into the receiver As tears streamed down her crinkly face This continued for an hour Until she resigned for the day Hoping for another heartfelt conversation A baffling mystery unsettled us Spectators to this daily drama. ...

Have You Gone? Have I Gone?
I get a tiny text from you. I do remember emails. Before those, phone conversations. And prior to those we'd meet. Sit for hours with coffee, tea, wine, chat. Chats appeared to go on and on and on. Remember those times, the chat, wine, tea, coffee? Then the phone calls we shared? And then some emails, before the occasional text? Texts may not go on. (23 Oct...

She Faces a Window
I'm hearing that same telephone from a neighbouring flat, each day at that same time, labouring with its ring-ding, ring-ding. This is no neighbour whom I know except that I glimpse that face, and hear that bell each day at that same window as she turns away from that ring-ding, ring-ding. Does she love to hear it, so then can turn her back to...
