That five-word sentence DOES "say it all", almost as well as "He dropped the ball". <br />That SECOND sentence means "He did fail", <br />AND from that FIRST sentence I'd likely quail. <br /> <br />Who, of you, indeed, wants to lose …………."IT"? <br />YOU may LOOK and LOOK, but then you may quit. <br />And "not finding IT" may seem worse than its losing. <br />STOP THAT LAUGHING! ! ! ! It ain't too damn amusing! ! ! <br /> <br />[[ "Where oh where has my little dog gone" was….. <br />one of the lines in a "little-Bri"-growing-up-song. <br />"Where are my glasses? ", not long ago I did say, then …. <br />"Why, they're perched atop my head. ……..Hey! ! " ]] <br /> <br />SO my advice to you, Readers, who've lost a library book …. OR …. <br />your cell phone, or your purse, or your favorite …..musical score, <br />is "Look, look, look, look, look, and then LOOK! ......a little bit more". <br /> <br />THEN pour a beverage into your cup, <br />and TRY to "move on" and FORGET "IT". <br /> <br />Then [[ with luck ]] "IT" MIGHT just show up! <br /> <br />(June 29,2014)<br /><br />Bri Edwards<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-did-i-put-it-humor-advice-when-something-is-lost-poem-challenge-for-july-not-long/
