The Cozy Corner
I scribbled your address upon a note
Now I just don't know where it is,
I was going to drop you a line
Maybe I used it as a shopping list.
I jotted your phone number on my hand
Oh, what now will you say,
I washed it away while doing the dishes
Now it's forever gone astray.
I tried to remember your email addy
By using a code or such,
But with my memory of blind flashes
Maybe that was asking way too much.
I even got all sentimental today
While meandering along the road,
And designed your name in pretty stones
Though no-one could ever read my fancy code.
And then I found the sharpest rock
To engrave a memory within some bark,
But it just splintered and fell apart
All I managed was a jagged mark.
I embroidered you a poem in crosstitch
What a keepsake that would be,
But how sad today I found
Silverfish had come to eat the lot for tea.
So all wrapped up in sentiment
I snuggled into my cozy corner seat,
And just prayed for you the longest while
For in my heart my dearest friend
Is where you're meant to be.
