Lucky for me, <br />the cell phone lost it's last bar <br />of signal strength <br />and the battery went dead <br />Just as I was about to pour myself <br />Into a flask for you <br />To carry in your hip pocket... <br />All full of kind kisses <br />And a million misses <br /> <br />Some devine intervention <br />Or cell tower interception <br />Kept me from emptying out all the gallons <br />Of gushing giddy overzealous <br />Sometimes jealous <br />candy coated gooey gumdrop <br />gotta tell him now notions <br />that really make no sense <br />To anyone, but me... <br />Overtired, a little wired <br />Best that the conversation was expired <br />The call drop, at precisely the moment <br />When too much could have been said <br />Without giving it much thought.<br /><br />Susan Lacovara<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dead-battery/
