Memory
Has anyone seen my memory
I can’t think where it’s gone.
I know I had it with me,
now where did I come from?
What was it that I’ve lost now,
I think that I’ve forgot.
It couldn’t be important
I lose it quite a lot.
Oh, now I can remember,
I thought that I’d forgot.
It’s my memory that is lacking
it won’t retain a lot.
It used to be quite healthy
when I was in my prime,
I never thought that it may leave
in some near distant time.
Now I make notes to help me
so that I remember all,
it’s just where I put these ‘aid memoirs’
that I cannot recall.
So if you find my memory
my problem you’ll redress,
please send it to my residence,
now.... what was my address?
