"THE CALL THAT MADE ME SMILE"

(Thanx to Missie for this beautiful graphic)

TODAY WHILE I WAS BUSY I HEARD MY MOBILE RING.

I WONDERED WHO CAN THIS BE I HOPE GOOD NEWS IT BRINGS.

AS I DON'T GET MANY PHONE CALLS ON MY MOBILE USUALLY.

SO I WONDERED STRAIGHT AWAY WHOEVER CAN THAT BE.

MY FAMILY ALWAYS TEXT ME TO SAY THEY ARE TO RING.

AND  ALWAYS SAY A TIME TO CHECK TO SEE IF I'LL BE IN.

SO I ANSWERED YES HELLO CAN I HELP YOU PLEASE I SAID.

BEFORE I GOT AN ANSWER MY MOBILE IT WENT DEAD.

OH! DEAR I THOUGHT THATS TORN IT I DON'T KNOW WHO IT WAS.

 

I THOUGHT AND THOUGHT FOR AGES BUT I WAS AT A LOSS.

 

WHEN I CHECKED THE NUMBER CAREFULLY IT WASN'T WHO I KNEW.

 

SO I JUST THOUGHT OH! WRONG NUMBER THEY HAD DIALLED TO GET THROUGH.

 

ABOUT AN HOUR LATER  MY LAND LINE THEN IT RANG.

 

I WAS LYING DOWN AND THOUGHT OH! WHO IS THIS NOW DAMN.

 

I HURRIED TO THE KITCHEN WHERE MY PHONE IS VERY FAST.

 

HELLO I SAID AGAIN AND I GOT A VOICE AT LAST.

 

A LADY QUICKLY SPOKE AND SAIDI'M RINGING YOU TO SEE.

 

ABOUT THE ADVERT YOU HAVE PLACED THE LOCKET BELONGS TO ME.

 

EXCITED THIS QUICK PHONE CALL MADE ME SMILE I SAID MY DEAR.

 

CAN YOU TURN YOUR VOLUME UP I CAN HARDLY HEAR.

 

SHE SPOKE OF VISITING MY TOWN AND SAID THAT GETTING HOME.

 

SHE REALISED WHEN SHOWERING HER LOCKET IT HAD GONE.

 

I COME TO YOUR TOWN ONCE A WEEK AND USUALLY TAKE A STROLL.

 

UPON THE BEACH WITH MY DOG AND PLAY AT THROWING HIS BALL.

 

I HAVE THE INFORMATION YOU REQUIRE AND WAS GOING TO TEXT .

 

WHEN I REALISED YOUR MOBILE AND SO I THOUGHT OH HECK.

 

I'LL RING THE LADIES LAND LINE NUMBER  MAYBE THATS THE BEST.

 

NOW  I HAVE THE INFORMATION I'LL NOW TELL YOU THE REST.

 

THE LOCKETS FULL OF SENTIMENT I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYE.

 

WHEN I READ THE ADVERT IN THE PAPER I BEGAN TO CRY.

 

SHE GAVE ME CORRECT ANSWERS WHAT I NEEDED NOW TO MEET.

 

HER AT MY FLAT TOMORROW AND I CANNOT  WAIT TO GREET.

 

SHE WAS REALY HAPPY AND SHE SAID IT'S NICE TO KNOW.

 

THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL HONEST AS THE LOCKET DO YOU KNOW.

 

WAS BOUGHT BY MY LATE HUSBAND AND I COULDN'T REPLACE IT.

 

I AM THRILLED TO BITS SO OVERCOME WITH EMOTION I  ADMIT.

 

SO TOMORROW AFTERNOON SHE WILL BE HERE WITH ME AND I .

 

WILL RETURN TO HER  THE  LOCKET AND  I BET THAT I WILL CRY.

 

AS I LOVE TO SEE FOLK HAPPY AND I'M THRILLED I GOT THE CALL.

 

I'M GOING TO RING UP JOSEPH NOW TO TELL HIM ABOUT IT ALL.

 

SO MY ADVERT DID THE TRICK J/LAND I'M SO HAPPY AT THIS TIME.

 

AND IT MADE ME FEEL I HAD  TO WRITE ANOTHER SIMPLE RHYME.
