My Glasses

My glasses, has anyone seen my glasses,
I laid them down a while ago.
We’ll look around Pop but we really need to go.

Well I can’t go without my glasses,
I can’t see even with them on.
We’ll find them Pop, soon as I get off the phone.

Ok, Pop where is the last time you saw them.
Son, I think it was on the table by the bed.
Pop, you’ll find them, simply look on your head.

Very good I liked your poem. I only started writing poems since my wife died in 2009 I can relate to rhyming poems better than others. As you can tell from my poems. A lot of poems I don’t understand and I would hate to give a wrong comment. I want my poems to honor my wife long after I’m gone. Thank you
