Antique voice box
hanging on the yellowed wall
Waiting patiently
for another call
No ring from that telephone anymore
an early relic left long ago
Should it ring loud and true
no one to answer a friendly hello
Craftsmanship gleams from that box
skillful detail in each cranny and nook
Time rolls on leaving behind an old
telephone hanging from its old hook
