I swear I brought it
into the mall
with me
but my cellphone
is now missing
evidently.
I must retrace
each step
of the way
or else this disaster
will ruin
my day
It's already 5 minutes
and I'm starting
to sweat.
I should've worn
diapers
to place a safe bet.
My head is spinning.
I just need
to cry
and roll into a ball,
lay down
and die.
A miracle
then happened
with a shining light
of biblical proportions
and rare
insight.
I recognized him
instantly
from a travel magazine.
He had the most beautiful face
I ever
seen.
The kind man
wore a button
that I could understand
if I wanted
to visit
the Holy Land
and in a voice so mellow
I immediately
had a clue
when He said
"Excuse me Sir.
I think this belongs to you."
belongs to you."
I looked deep into His eyes
and no longer
felt alone
"Jesus Christ,
you've found
my beloved cellphone!"
