"Ode To A Key Ring":
"Ah, you faithful key ring,
You hold my keys so well,
You keep them from getting
Scattered all to hell.
There's just one thing wrong,
(I hold no grudges, mind you)
Whenever I'm locked out,
I can never seem to find you.
I ask myself why,
Oh, WHY did I lock it?
Then I find you're where I left you,
Right there--in my pocket!"

I wrote this little poem in college as part of one of my class assignments, and just happened to stumble across it again. Hoping it gives DUers a little chuckle in this tumultuous time!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
