Angel of the phone
You saved me
Listening when No one
Answered
Catching tear drops
Leaking through
The line
Laughing at jokes
That made no sense
Picking up pieces
Scattered all about
Angel of the phone line
Stay near me
And never depart
Be with me
Hold me tight
Amidst coiled wire
On duty  with never
A break
Don't hang up
Or let wires cross
Be there for me
My angel of
The phone

Oh how I like
    Poetry
The rhythm of
The words
Tap tapping out
Sounds
Deep from the
Heart
Words of heartbreak
Tender words of love
Wrapped in memories
Of days gone by
Oh how I like
The sound of poetry
Refreshing words
A babbling brook
Of sounds
Immense pain
Healing and redemption
Confessions and
Lessons learned
Strength and glory
Thanks and praise
Words colored with
Nature and love
Rhyming sounds
Roving thoughts
A collector's smorgasbord
Buried deep within
And ready for release
Mary Anne Norton Jun 2021
Flying high the sky
Winged creatures soar
Twisting and turning
Freedom all about
Over roof tipped houses
Cluttered streets
Littered with garbage
And debris
Circling over rivers
And streams
Blanketed mountain tops
Welcoming trees
Oh to fly
High above and over
The majestic sights
All around
Mary Anne Norton Jun 2021
Waiting for a sign
Knowing it really won't come
Just around the bend
Mary Anne Norton Jun 2021
Sprinkling upon me
Leaving Droplets on my
Nose
Time to dry off
Mary Anne Norton Jun 2021
A boom fills the air
The dog runs under the bed
Hoping for coverage
Mary Anne Norton Jun 2021
Soaked in beauty
All around
Reddest of reds
Peeping out among
Velvet green
Of trees
Shades of brown
Happily hopping about
Vibrant oranges and yellows
Dancing on slender
Stems
Life is a blessing
Certainly not in disquise
