Busy schedules can leave teenagers stranded <br />This is why I agreed to provide when demanded <br />Chocolates and Razors suddenly expand desires <br />Increasing a need for dialogue over invisible wires <br /> <br />The value of a minute is measured by coins <br />Aimless conversation strays and jokingly joins <br />With laughter that flows freely in the breeze <br />Into hours of babble that start to squeeze <br /> <br />Minutes that go over the allotted amount of time <br />Quickly add in value like nuggets in a gold mine <br />Grandchildren of mine, remember this important fact <br />Excessive minutes are not for free, so be exact… <br /> <br />Keep conversations brief and don’t go over the peak <br />I am starting to panic and my heart is growing weak <br />An excessive bill could send me into cardiac arrest <br />Be considerate and heed your Granny’s request…<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/teenagers-and-cell-phones/
