I don't think I need my glasses
Though, I am often reminded to put them on
One day, I didn't wear them for most of that day
And didn't feel a thing
But my sister bullies me to put them on
Sometimes, I forget to clean them
And I get so frustrated, I take them off
Then, I get a headache and clean them
I wonder if Dorothy Parker had to wear them
Would she have the same predicament?
With age we all are in same boat. Good poem LeeAnn. Full TOO]

Very interesting! The last two lines are punch lines that take the reader by surprise. Wearing glasses all the time can be really irksome.
I don't wear my glasses either, unless I am driving. I have found it difficult to write or type with my glasses on, though my sight is poor and everything looks blurred. Nice poem…
Most of us will need glasses at some point when we age. But some factors speed up the timeline wherein we need corrective lenses especially when we spend a lot of time reading and writing. An amusing write that most of us could relate.Loved it.
