Lost and Found

Almost lost you today, didn’t I?!?
What was I thinking, I wonder aloud!
It would never ever have been the same,
Without you, my sky is but a grey cloud!

Intact in your safe cocoon, ensconced,
In happy times and sad, to thee, I bow!
My faithful companion, you always are,
A storehouse of memories, ever and now!

As the vagaries of my mind ran amok,
Extricated you out your unusual home,
Heavy steps, heavier eyes, heaviest mind,
All led you, from my hands, to roam…

Frantic searches, pitiful, scared moments,
They sure did seem to last a lifetime long!
When, rolling back to me, you happily came,
I could’ve sworn you sang a little song!
