Lost Package Lament

On my way to Pleasant Grove
I  found myself in Lehi
I feel so lost and all alone
And no one here can find me

I left last month from Dallas town
A gift for poems borrowed
I'm sitting in a real dark place
'cause no one here can find me

A second gift is sent this week
Replacement 'cause I'm tardy
I was the first and now I'm not
I wish that they could find me

I hope the next won't share my fate
Of sitting here in Lehi
I hope he'll got to Pleasant Grove
I don't want him to find me

I don't consider myself a poet, I'm actually a photographer, but I got permission from a poet here to use a poem. I sent her a copy of the photo and it's been lost in the mail. I'm simply having fun with the situation.
