What I found in the junk drawer I have a junk drawer in the kitchen Containing things of all descriptions Look inside at a big jumble We can only hope there’s nothing fungal scissors and an ice cream scoop a can opener, a loop-dee-loop a lot of orphaned playing cards and push pins so be on your guard candles, corkscrews, blender blades pens for when the memory fades pencils, markers, sticky notes fragment of ceramic boat twist ties and dead batteries small gadgets to strain your tea large plastic ring of unknown use highlighters of goose or moose potato brush, egg separator soon we’ll find an alligator There’s a whole bunch of other stuff Flotsam, jetsam, lots of fluff But inside that humble jumble At least I know there’s nothing fungal! |
