The Case of the Missing Socks
Dear Curious Youth
And inquisitive Sleuth
I present to you a quandary
A baffling report
An enigma of sort
Whenever I do my laundry
It’s quite odd enough
That some certain stuff
Go missing before I’m through
Between warm, rinse and cold
Sort, hang and fold
I find one sock instead of two.
Despite diligent seeking
Specifically speaking
And searching high and low
And just to be clear
I have no idea
Where the missing sock might go
So I’m left empty handed
Or single-sock stranded
And am leaving you in charge
So you my dear friend
May soon apprehend
This sock-napping culprit at large
I must soon leave this place
And commence my next case
Please continue with my query
But before I go
You ought to know
I’ve formulated a theory
Just thinking this through
And an evidence review
Consider this please, I beg
It’s rough and brief
But the brazen thief
Might only have one leg!
Be smart and reflective
My washroom detective
It’s now entirely up to you
To determine the fate
Of this Laundry-gate
Your Good Friend,
Nancy Drew
