A Laundry Room Mystery

In a land where socks go missing,

A mystery quite absurd,

They vanish from the laundry,

Like a magician's final word.

I search high and low, oh where could they be?

Behind the couch, or up a tree?

But no matter how hard I look and I grope,

They return as solo socks, giving me hope.

They must have a secret sock society,

Meeting in the depths of my laundry,

Plotting escapes in the dead of night,

Hatching their plans out of my sight.

One sock with stripes, the other with spots,

They sneak away like crafty plots,

To party under the full moon's glow,

In the sock kingdom down below.

They dance in pairs, do-si-do,

Laughing at me, to and fro,

While I'm left wondering, scratching my head,

"Where do my socks go?" I've often said.

But worry not, for it's all in fun,

This sock escapade under the sun,

For in the end, they come back to me,

Though mismatched and full of glee.

So if you see a sock on a solo flight,

Remember the laundry's eternal plight,

They're off on adventures, it's plain to see,

But one day, together, they'll come back to me!
