Let the phone ring

let the phone ring
while you pause
to smile with a child,
let the phone ring
when you watch
the soup as it boils,
let the phone ring
while you're
lost in a song,
let the phone ring
when you feel
sad and forlorn,
let the phone ring
when you take
a walk in the park,
let the phone ring
while you hear
the song of a lark,
let the phone ring
when you're
in touch with yourself,
when time and space freeze,
you don't need the rest.
