Why can't I find the keys I used Just a few seconds before The telephone distracted me As I was walking through the door? And I can't locate where I put The glasses that I wear each day Or remember what I did with The gas bill I intend to pay. Yet my memory's a steel trap For facts I'd just as soon forget: The right weight for a man my height, The current level of my debt. And I can repeat verbatim Words from useless ancient songs. So I have memory enough. I just forget where it belongs. |

Dom Mart - Were you watching me? I gingerly searched for my keys? Or did you perhaps see them turn off the lights on me? BEEN THERE .. DONE THAT ! But, like you .... I keep on singing those songs !! Thanks for this one ... glad to know someone else has those 'senior moments'. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
