Thanks For Calling Poem by Diana Holinski

Thanks For Calling

Rating: 4.5


Thanks for calling
You're a gem
That is why
I said 'je'taime'
Voice of reason
Voice of calm
Voice that acts like
Chaos balm
Landing strip for
All my 'stuff'
Still wondering when
You'll say 'enough! '
Never seem to
Lose your cool
Even when I'm
Such a fool
Let me throw
Myself at you
Take Liberties
Without your cue
And when my mind
Flies with the wind
You have your glove out
Trusted friend

There is an emotional warmth to this. Like a blanket, hot from the dryer, on a cold rainy day. Well done, Diana! Reminds me of a friend I had in high school......

This poem has a real nice whole and rounded feeling to it. One visualizes the poet stressing, a bit frazzed, with the caller taking it in and offering simply a soothing presence to calm the nerves. nice honest open work
