Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Mind Reset

While bowling with his team one night,
Ralph slipped and fell and struck his head.
He staggered up and out of sight.
Everyone thought Ralph was dead.
Ten years later he reappeared,
Amnesiac for that whole time.
His friends and family all cheered.
Ralph's memory was back in prime.
His wife told him that the whole block
Wanted to honor his return
That very night at eight o'clock.
Ralph told his wife of his concern,

"I 'preciate the nice invite,"
"But gee - not on my bowling night."
