In Place

I’m not the type to lose things And I hope that doesn’t change, Although sometimes as we age What’s in our minds may rearrange. If everything gets put in place Right after we have used it, It should be there when needed next (Unless our brains confused it). For those who toss possessions Every time in different spots, Finding items might be like A much less fun connect-the-dots. But for neatniks or obsessives, It becomes a little game. Every shelf or drawer or closet Day by day remains the same.
