Name Game

No one can tell me who you are, I forget names! From near and far, A face, I'll never forget! But a name, Slides right out of my brain! Sometimes I can hold them, As if with a net. To see what can rhyme, Better yet! Often, I'll remember, If I repeat them in December. More often than not, I'll just forget a lot. To many you see, In front of me. So, I wait until, Someone else says their name. And I'll repeat it, Yet again!

The only thing that works for me is ryhming the name with something else, like Lucky Louise, Silly Sarah. Just have to be careful no one gets insulted.
