Cell Phones

tonight
my
wife
worries
about
our
son
“why did you let him go?
I wonder if he is okay?
I don’t think this was a good idea.”
“call him,” I suggest.
“he has his cell phone.”
within
seconds
she
is
speaking
with
our
son
the
tension
and
worry
melts
away
she
is
now
relaxed
ready
for
bed
but
deep
down
we
wonder
yet
again
what
if
Nathan
had
a
cell
phone
we
might
have
called
him
that
fatal
night
it
might
have
changed
everything
Nathan
might
still
be
alive
will
such
tormenting
questions
ever
stop
will
our
heart
mind
and
soul
ever
truly
be
at
peace
or
will
we
be
forever
at
the
mercy
of
these
marauders?
