Phones

 

Mom, can I have those two cans and some string?
The boys down the street said I could make this thing,
We could whisper a message across our great lawn,
To protect our good house in the night till the dawn.

 

But, now here we are with our texting today,
The emails, and photo streams here on display,
Oh, pull your strings tight; when you whisper within,
Just say, “Hey, I love you!”, and you always win!
