Funny Feel Good Poetry:
Although not a poetic person myself I'm sure that all of you have one that makes you laugh, from somewhere in your memory banks.
Or maybe we actually have some real poets out there with a humorous side.
I remember one from early on that stuck with me, and fits my situation now to a tea.
My Forgetter
My forgetter's getting better but my rememberer is broke,
To you that may seem funny but, to me it is no joke.
For when I'm here" I'm wondering if I really should be there",
And when I think it through, I haven't really got a prayer.
Often times I walk into a room, say "what am I here for?"
I wrack my brain, but all in vain a zero is my score.
At times I put something away where it is safe, but, Gee!
The person it is safest from, is generally,me!
When shopping I may see someone, say "Hi" and have a real nice chat.
Then when the person walks away I ask myself "who in the world was that?"
Yes, my forgetter's getting better while my rememberer is broke.
And it's driving me plumb crazy and for me that is no joke!
I have no idea who wrote it, or where I read it, but the person must have seen my future.
