I checked the desk
I checked the drawer
I checked the chair
I checked the door
I checked my suit
I checked my coat
I checked my truck
I checked my boat
Where can they be
Those blasted keys?
Where would I be
If I were keys?
I looked here
And I looked there
I even said
A little prayer
I looked sooner
I looked later
I even checked
My ‘frigerator
Did I put them in my pants?
Or did I leave them in my car?
They can run and they can hide
But they will not get very far
Richard W. Bray
