ABSENT MINDED
She sang
And danced
Happily.
She was
Going
On a
Trip.
Her bags
Stood
Packed
Full of
All she
Would
Need.
Nothing
She'd
Miss.
Dressed
In a
T-shirt
And jeans,
She steut
About
Like a
Queen
The day
Was
Twenty-four
Hours
Away,
The day
Of her
Leaving.
She hailed
A cab
And got in.
To the
Train station
She
Said
Laughing
And singing!
I'm going
Away
From this
Place
On a
Long, long
Vacation.
At the station
She got
Off...
No bags,
No money
No purse.
The cab
Driver
Demand
His fare
And when
She
Couldn't pay
He drove
Her right
Back!
Absent minded
She unpacked
Staying
Where she
Was
After all!
