The Lost Hat

Dammit I’ve gone and lost my hat.
How the heck did I do that?
I swear it was there a minute ago,
now it’s decided not to show. 
I’ve searched the house high and low,
even the shed which I never go,
but it’s just disappeared, as if like magic;
my favourite hat, it’s simply tragic!
Ah there goes the door, my wife I presume
she’ll know where it is, of that I assume.
She said with a shrug and a roll of her eyes,
‘The hats on your head, which doesn’t surprise!’

Thanks Jan. Agree, I do this sort of thing a lot. I misplace stuff all the time and the things right in front of my eyes. Glad you liked the poem. Best wishes...xx
