An Emergency Call Poem by Margaret O Driscoll
An Emergency Call
With trembling hands on the phone
In panic, heart thumping, all alone
Eyes teary as I dial 999
My voice trembling on the line
I call out the name and address
States the reason for my distress
Shivering in shock, no one around
Hoping I'll soon hear the siren's sound
Feeling relieved when help gets there
I bless myself, say a silent prayer
