The Mess Stress

My cupboard is full of things useful

and things that are not,

The harder I try to organise it,

the messier it has got!

Whenever I’ve looked for that pretty dress

in my pile of clothes jumbled,

they’ve lost their normal equilibrium

all over me they’ve tumbled!

Lo! I’ve looked for that important documen t

in every cranny and crevice,

A mysterious corner they’ve found

to stick around and hide!

Then when the things are cool and calm

ebbed away has the tide,

I’ve found the thing I was looking for

right in front of my eyes!

Is my cupboard as bewildered

as my addled mind I wonder!

How much life does it take

to get so down and under!

O I hate this mumbo jumbo

that over me does surround,

A silly potato head like me

is the funniest to have around!!!
