I've Lost My Mind I wonder if you'd help me please, I lost my mind today … I've searched and searched to no avail, It's simply gone astray. I'm sure I had it when I woke, But then it disappeared … I've looked in all the nooks and crannies, Truly persevered. However I am at a loss, So could you help me out? I cannot find that silly thing, It's left without a doubt! I'll place an ad tomorrow In the local classifieds, I'll even add a small reward, If anyone complies. Oh yes, I tried to trace my steps, I backed up all the way, But I can't place my finger on Just when it ran away. It answers to my name, and yes, I've yelled for it in fact, I shouted till my voice was hoarse, But it's not coming back. So if you find it, let me know, I'm feeling so unwise … I've lost my mind, oh mercy me, I feel lobotomized!  /Kit McCallum [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (edited 06-27-2001).] |

You didn't lose it, it's taking a few days off to rest and recuperate! I think I saw it drinking Pina Coladas at ClubMed!  |

This was so cute, but brother I do believe mine is there with yours and Logan's. I hope they are having fun, because I can't find my glasses! Thanks for a chuckle Kit. "Lose your temper and you lose a friend; lie and you lose yourself." |

$1,000,000,000.00....a bargain, if we can find Kit's mind again! That's the reward... BUT...a caveat.... it MUST come poetically! |

i thought i saw your mind today out playing in the park but surely it knows better than to stay out after dark perhaps it's tied up to a string it's hope to be a kite to float up high above the clouds remaining out of sight i really can't help wondering although i have no clue perhaps it's not your mind that's lost... could it, instead, be YOU? Sorry Kit...just couldn't resist! LOL Hope you find that wandering mind of yours soon. They can be awfully difficult to find when they want to stay lost!  hugs, Vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 06-28-2001).] |

Not a wonder that you get so many replies to your work, its lines flow as smooth as a river. Great work |

Kit~ I would have replied sooner but I've really been out lookin' Now you probably won't like it ... but I found that rascal hookin' Yeah, I know ... embarassing but you'll be glad to know Though she's sullied her reputation ... She's bring home the DOUGH ! ! Found her on a street corner on South Orange Blossom Trail Working her little tukus off ... to try to make her bail ! She boarded the 6:08 headed out of town ... Waved to all the Johnny's ... with a, "Muuuuwahhhhhh ! See you guys around." She should be arriving home at close to a quarter to four ... I know you'll be happy to see her as she waltzes through the door ! No wonder she wants to come home ... You're a darned good poet ! ! Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Melton: Well ... when you find your marbles Melton, please send my mind straight home OK? It's past it's bedtime, LOL Rick: Thank you for this sweet comment Rick. I'm glad you enjoyed the flow, that means a lot to me! Interloper: Thank you so much for the poetic response Interloper ... and I appreciate very much where your heart and mind are, big smiles here! Seymour: Aha! Now I should have looked there first Sy. It's an early night for me, so perhaps I'll track it down shortly then ... hugs to you for the hint! Victoria: We sure do Victoria, sometimes I think I have a lopsided share in the market though, LOL. I'm glad you enjoyed! Suthern: ROFL ... maybe this is contagious or something! I'm glad you enjoyed Suthern, thanks for the grins! Marge: You supersleuth you! ROFL ... this was great Marge! Shame on her! If she's been out galavanting around on the streetcorners and alleyways, I'd best stock up on some good soap suds to clean up that dirty mind when she drags herself in at 4am, LOL. Love ya too! Much appreciation to all, /Kit |
