Where Did I Put Those Glasses

I know I put my glasses down, but don't remember where I would ask someone to help me, but no one seems to care I've looked in all the places, that I may have put them down The last place that I thought to look, the pocket of my gown Naturally they are not there, continue with the search Even Cocky seems amused, there sitting on his perch Did I leave them outside in the car, go out and have a look I soon found out that they were not there, in the minute that it took I even opened up the fridge, they never have been there But it is still a place to look, with diligence and care I've been up to the bedroom, even checked the bed Told the family to find them, or no one will be fed They all gave me that resigned look, now they will have to say That they know where my glasses are, there is no other way They still kept quiet and watched me, as I went from room to room They know they will have to tell me, if I do not find them soon That would mean they would go hungry, for I would keep my word I still listen for a message, from that little dicky bird The youngest of the children breaks, and tells me where they are They were sitting high up on my head, did not get very far

So fun and worse yet so true! How many times do we spectacle wearers lose them only to find them a couple inches away!
