The Call

The Call

A call came in this morning

to tell me some news.

News that has sent my mind

on a whirl wind.

I've had this call a few other

times, but I worry regardless.

I know you are in good hands,

and there's really nothing I can do.

I'm 3,000 miles away, so all I can

do is wait.

I try to knit, but my mind wanders

and I loose track of my stitches.

I try to do some spinning, but the

fiber is getting over twisted and sometimes

under twisted.

My mind is nothing but a whirl wind.

The phone rings, I jump and I hear

that you are resting and tests were being done,

and the results will come back in a hour or so.

The whirl wind of my mind is slowly dying

down, but its still whirling.

It will not stop until I know that all is well and

you are home.

Get some rest, I love you Mom!
