MISSING
Julie Andrews b.1935

I've lost my sense of humour,
It fell into a well.
That'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 humour
And if, by chance, you see
It peeking round a corner
Please send it back to me.
