“I can’t find my glasses!” she said,
“I’ve looked everywhere”.
So the hunt started.
“Where were you?” I asked,
“I was in the kitchen, tidying up”.
So into the kitchen I went,
Looked in cupboards,
Looked in drawers,
Looked in pots,,
Looked pans
I even looked in the ‘fridge,
And in the oven,
But no even I could not find them.
Extended the search to dining room,
Into the lounge and conservatory.
“Have you looked in your handbag?”
“Yes”, she said, “Several times”
So I looked as well,
But no they weren’t there.
All evening I kept on looking
As I moved around the house.
Looking in all the places I’d looked,
All to no avail,
I even looked through the handbag again
But no, they weren’t there.
So off to bed we went,
Slept soundly,
And then arose.
As I walked into the kitchen
The search started once more,
Again, to no avail.
I made my darling her tea,
Took it up to her
Still without her glasses.
We had looked everywhere,
Several times.
Once more I went back to her handbag,
And there hiding in the bottom were her glasses,
The ghost in our house must have put them back!
We had been to Specsavers to get the glasses,
So it could not be said this time,
That we need to go to Specsavers.
