before technology . 4/3/21
Before cell phones
We were forced
To pick up the phone
Yes, a land line
Rotary
Push button
Dial a number
No caller ID
Crossing your fingers
That someone was home
Hoping and waiting
Just to hear a real voice
No voicemail
No using our fingers
To text a message
That was not an option
But using our fingers
To dial a number
7 digits
That we had to memorize
Remember
Phone books told us how to find
The things we needed
Address books told us
How to connect
To the people we needed
How did we ever get along
Without our devices
Easy
We called
We listened
Then hung up the phone
Until someone
Called us back
