Poem Artwork

they were here yesterday.  can't
find them now, these words to a
poem jotted down on a piece of
paper.  they were very important

--- where did they go?  swear i'm
losing my mind --- was wrapping
Christmas presents earlier.  did i
accidently put them in someone's

gift?  (if so, they're going to be
surprised.)  really don't feel like
undoing them --- oh.  no.  or did
i throw them out with the trash??

can't remember --- think, karla ---
think.  where was the last place
you saw them?  that's just it --- i.
don't.  know --- there are little

'reminders' everywhere, telling
me we're out of milk and bread:
oh, yeah, used the last of the
trashbags.  this person called

and this bill needs to be paid ---
whoops.  forgot about that one.
where is my brain?  more than
likely --- on a piece of paper!!!!

With this you have helped many to laugh a little and then relax thereby releasing some stress which they did not know how to manage it. Love your humour dear sister.

Making fun of tragedy is the best way to get out of its way! But sometimes one asked oneself if the Big Boss do overdo it just a little too far.

The humor is always great when we poke at ourselves. This is sooooo like me too. What did that famous Greek philosopher, Anonymous say,
:If it weren't for brains, I'd have none at all."

Blessings and love and I'll throw in a little luck in helping yopu find your poem.

The question is: who got the poem in the Christmas gift and HOW surprised will they be? Maybe, like a message in a bottle, the poem will find its way back to AD submitted under another name. Wouldn't that be weird???

Join The Club - I leave my wife notes all the time, and what does she do with them? She crumples them up, without reading them, and throws them in the trash. Then she writes me a note to 'Take Out The Trash!!'
