Keys
by Anitra L. Freeman (with My Wesley)

LEAVE KEYS ON TOP OF REFRIGERATOR
so that you can find them later.

Do not sleep with them in bed,
They're stiff, but small.. (That's all, she said.)

Do not lay them on the floor
Dr. Browning does implore.
Finding them is such a chore.

Do not leave them in the shower.
"They don't belong here!" Tub will glower.

Do not throw them in the closet,
Though it's easy just to toss it,
There's piles already, I would posit.

Don't put them in the laundry hamper,
They may not turn if they get damper.

Do not leave them on the dresser.
Of all the places, that's the lesser,
Because it is the tops for mess, sir.

Leave keys on the refrigerator,
so that you can find them later.
