Absent Minded Friends

Written in an email to my friend Nan Tucker (a gracious lady who is an amazing writer).


 

Absent Minded friends
Can drive a person crazy
It's not that they are dense
or even that they're lazy.
It's simply that their brains
Are full of many thoughts
That compounded together
Exceed the daily "oughts."
