the magnifying glass ode
Those clues won't find themselves
immersed in my 'hidden object' game
trying to find those darned elusive shifty pieces
scrunching up my eyes
i am already half blind, mind you
no luck, and time is fast running out
time to pull a Sherlock on your arse
I reach for my trusty magnifying glass
always ready to arrest that elusive perp
you can't hide, mags will find you
up to my face the tiny rounded magnifier hops
no one hides from my magnifying glass
yes! found em, i shout after a few secs
what did i just say?
about the attributes of my tiny magnified eyes
no one or thing hides from you
my trusty magnifying glass.....

We should use this on people. They're so good at hiding things, lol. Loved your ode!

I couldn't help but laugh. Loved it.
I can imagine you sniffing around with your magnifying glass like this 🔎 around the home! 😆
