Don’t Cut Me Off

I was waiting for a call and it never came. I had to go about my work and when I did, the call came through. Luckily I had told the others that I was expecting it because they called me to the phone. My, these cordless phones, yah would think with all the presence of cellular phone technology that the cordless would be real capable of the 2 miles we were promised 10 years ago

Don’t Cut Me Off

Dog gone it! The phone rang

Out in the yard and I heard bang bang

Now it rings when I am way out here

Then I heard them, Honey are you there

Couldn’t believe it! It was really for me!

Unable to leave the yard cause I was feeding the puppy

They brought the extension and I said hello

My ears caught an accent that was easy to know

Excitement came like a raging flood

Only the voice was great but the reception was no good

For a brief moment I heard “I’m here!”

Five seconds later the line was cut off, five seconds later a tear!
