Where Did I Put It! …… [humor; Advice When Something Is Lost; Poem Challenge For July; Not Long]
That five-word sentence DOES "say it all", almost as well as "He dropped the ball".
That SECOND sentence means "He did fail",
AND from that FIRST sentence I'd likely quail.
Who, of you, indeed, wants to lose …………."IT"?
YOU may LOOK and LOOK, but then you may quit.
And "not finding IT" may seem worse than its losing.
STOP THAT LAUGHING! ! ! ! It ain't too damn amusing! ! !
[[ "Where oh where has my little dog gone" was…..
one of the lines in a "little-Bri"-growing-up-song.
"Where are my glasses? ", not long ago I did say, then ….
"Why, they're perched atop my head. ……..Hey! ! " ]]
SO my advice to you, Readers, who've lost a library book …. OR ….
your cell phone, or your purse, or your favorite …..musical score,
is "Look, look, look, look, look, and then LOOK! ......a little bit more".
THEN pour a beverage into your cup,
and TRY to "move on" and FORGET "IT".
Then [[ with luck ]] "IT" MIGHT just show up!

yet with this title. is anyone else up to the 'challenge'?
perhaps i have a bit of an edge over younger, less-senile, members who may not have as much experience with misplacing/forgetting where something has been put. :) bri
p.s. i guess to enter the 'contest', one must submit the poem to Brian Johnston via a PH message; i suggest also submitting it to PH for others to consume. bon appetit!
p.p.s. gee, i just noticed that if i left one 'p' out of appetit, i'd have an anatomical part of a gorilla or chimp or somethin'.
This is so amusing a write Bri....! The solution you suggested at the end seems to work wonderfully though I haven't tried. But somehow when we try to 'move on' and forget 'it', it miraculously pops up from nowhere! I can't stop laughing.... hey who has given this a 1.0? To compensate it I give you top marks!
there is a bemused pleasure in finding the icecream in the oven and even, I suppose, the chook in the washing machine.
Short and sweet: If you're losing shit you're losing it. die... it cola
