Herbert Nehrlich - London

It rang again just now,
you think it's her,
or just a fluke at 3 a.m.?
Maybe we should,
and quickly now
try that toll free one
again, but then
our line will be...
busy, and if she rings!
Go next door dear,
ask if we can borrow
their mobile.
And I will wait
right here, and pray.

Herbert Nehrlich
