My Forgetter


My forgetter's getting better
 But my rememberer is broke.
 To you that may seem funny
 But, to me, that is no joke.


 For when I'm "here" I'm wondering
 If I really should be "there"
 And, when I try to think it through,
 I haven't got a prayer!


 Oft times I walk into a room,
 Say "what am I here for?"
 I wrack my brain, but all in vain
 A zero, is my score.


 At times I put something away
 Where it is safe, but, Gee!
 The person it is safest from
 You're right, it's  usually me!


 When shopping I may see someone,
 Say "Hi" and have a chat,
 Then, when the person walks away
 I ask myself, "who's that?"


 Yes, my forgetter's getting better
 But my rememberer is broke.
 And it's driving me plumb crazy
 And that isn't any joke.
