SCATTERBRAINED (acrostic sonnet?)
Scarcely have I thought to act in good time,
Challenging for me to remember things.
All that information lost from my prime,
Trust my memory to glide off on wings!
Those commodities I forgot to buy
Especially at supermarket stores,
Reaching home without them making me sigh
Because I have to go straight back outdoors.
Reality check comes when I appear
At venues having left something behind,
Invariably key items, I fear,
Never anything unimportant, mind.
Essentially, I made up a check list
Doubtful I’ll remember it, that’s the twist!

Reading glasses are the worst, Phillip, I have 4 pairs and still manage to misplace them all, ha ha.
Thank you very much for your kind comments, much appreciated.
