The First Call

Will she really call

Or find a need to stall

So nervous to answer the phone

It is a good thing I am alone

No one will see me blush

Or hear my words pour out in a rush

My hands are full of nervous sweat

Hopefully I will not drop the handset

I start to talk hopping I find the right words

Listening to the chirping of the birds

Her voice if so sweet

She could sweep me off my feet

I say something to make her laugh

Which cuts my nervousness in half

Now that we broken this ice

Maybe this will happen twice

I am happy have the first call completed

Can't wait until it is repeated
