Missing: By Julie Andrews

Julie Andrews and her daughter recently came out with a book of poems and lullabies that is just great. I have only seen and read excerpts, but I would love to have it. This poem really describes our last few days.

Missing: By Julie Andrews

I've lost my sense of humor
It fell into a well
It's full of dark self pity as far as I can tell.

I'm glared at by the children.
I'm yelled at by the boss.
And every little word I say makes everybody cross.

I'd run away and not come back if it would do some good.
But nobody would notice, so I don't think I should.

I miss my sense of humor. If by chance you see,
It peeking 'round the corner, please send it back to me.
