A LITTLE MIXED UP
Just a line to say I'm living
that I'm not among the dead;
Though I'm getting more forgetful,
And more mixed up in the head.
For,sometimes I can't remember,
when I stand at the foot of the stair,
If I must go up for something,
or if I've just come down from there.
And before the frig' , so often,
My poor mind is filled with doubt,
Have I just put food away, or
Have I come to take some out.
And then there's time when its dark out,
with my night cap on my head,
I don't know if I'm retiring,
or just got out of bed.
So, If its my turn to writr you,
Theres's no need in getting sore,
I may think I have writtrn,
And don't want to be a bore,
So, remember - I do love you,
And I wish that you were here;
But now, its nearly mail time,
So I must say goodbye dear.
There I stood beside the mailbox,
With a face very red,
Instead of mailing tou my letter,
I had opened it instead.
