I sweep away the regret of never

Strange just a little while ago, I was cleaning, well really tossing. I am resting now. Big election day. Lots of sorting, cleaning. Company coming tonight. Blessed grandchildren!

Lost Calls
Tonight 14 cell phones were tossed,
only 3 remain
how much money was lost
on all those calls in vain
Did she ever see the ID

Perhaps she did see,
but trembled with some foolish shame.
Hell she could have been my number 4
now she only has herself to blame.
