Oakville, Campsite (2019)

Here’s a working phone booth also at a campsite.
And the reason it is kept in pristine order is because
it’s beside a swimming pool.
 
And, for some reason, just in case whoever’s drowning 
is three years old and didn’t bring their cell phone,
someone can run quickly to the phone booth and phone
for help instead of jumping in the pool to save the 
little nipper.
