Who Do I Call?I had a little accident today! I hurt my tummy and my knee! I needed it kissed better, and I need my mummy you see! But my mummy went to heaven, when I was only three! I didn't want her to go, because I needed her here with me. So I tried to find my mummy, I need to phone her in heaven! So I phoned the operator, cos I am only seven! I told the operator…That I need to see my mum! And told her that I fell down, and I had an aching tum! 'Can you find me the number?' I asked, 'because you see,' 'I need my mum to make it better she has a magic kiss for me.' 'Tell me operator...is it in this yellow book?' 'The telephone number to heaven, I can't find it when I look.' 'Operator are you there, are you hurting too?' 'Is your mummy in heaven, don't you know what to do?' 'Can I phone her in heaven, do you think I will get through?' 'I really need my mummy! And I don't know what to do?' 'Oh, I found this piece of paper, pinned high upon this wall,' 'It's for my little church! I'm going to make a call.' 'My daddy always told me, my church would help me out,' 'And I can I say a prayer to God, if ever I'm in doubt!' 'I think my daddy misses her? He can't find Heaven for me,' 'He said that God took her away, when I was only three!' 'I sometimes see a tear…in my daddy's eye,' 'His face goes red and sad, and then he will start to cry.' 'Operator I'm going now!' 'But I hope that you feel better,' 'And if heaven doesn't have a phone,' 'Try sending God a letter!' Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem |
