November contest winner

Please join me in congratulating Sparrow as the November contest winner for PAST IT (Whatever It Is).
A light hearted look at oldsters' absent mindedness

Past it ( Whatever it is ) November Contest
Submitted by Sparrow on Sat, 2018-11-24 19:49

I am in a quandary
What has been happening to me?
I put my morning coffee away
In the fridge and there it stayed

I found it later in the day
As I was putting the cutlery away
Oh shit what is going on
How can I get everything so wrong?

Couldn’t find my glasses to see
Till I scratched my head
I should have stayed in my bed
But which room was my bed in.

I shouted for help as I always do
No good I remembered
I was on my own in this old house
As years ago I had left you.

If you know where I live
And you are just passing by
Drop in to see me
All I can do now, is raise a sigh..
