I'm Absent-minded

by Ogden


("I'm Not Perfect" Contest Entry)
I am ready to go and think I'm all set,
But where am I going? I often forget.

I wrote a poem for a contest, and I forgot to post it.
I put a bagel in the toaster, and I forgot to toast it.

No wonder I'm so hungry. I haven't even eaten it.
And my coffee's so bitter! I never even sweetened it.

I admit I forget things, but that's my worse flaw.
(If you don't count the racket I make when I snore.)

Now, where are my grapes? i don't want to waste them.
Oh no, not again! I think I misplaced them!


I'm tired of looking. I'll sit down in this chair.
Aw, what's this I'm squishing?! Who put those grapes there?!!
