Dial Tone Poem by Josephine Lauderdale
Dial Tone
So he didn't call back
Was he busy?
To busy to pick up?
It's like that with God sometimes
I call and leave a message
I call him again
And hang up
I call him again
To see if he got my message
When will I call him again?
When will I trust the message I received?
I would not have to call back
If only I'd believed...
A fine poem that lives through ideas, a clever extended metaphor.
