Beside the desolate park
with abandoned swings
and knee-tall grasses
stands an old telephone booth
covered in vines
It’s paint has faded
the wood is chipped
and no one knows when was it
Last used but if you
Look closely you would find
Messages of all kinds…
Written with pen
Or carved with blade
They stand the test of time
Alongwith the old telephone booth covered in vines.
What memories this brings back! I remember those names, numbers, and messages that were such a part of the iconic telephone booths. Gosh, I miss those. Thank you for reminding me through your delightful description
Another wonderful snapshot rife with nostalgia from you! Well done. Very well done.
