I’ve Got Baggage

 
I’ve got a vanity case that’s shy and coy
A mailbag that’s clearly a girl not a boy
A head case that lags behind
A lost case that’s easy to find
A bum bag that only covers my crutch
A clutch bag too big for me to clutch
A holdall that really doesn’t hold all
A laptop case that just won’t install
A show case that’s retiring and shy
A murder case with an alibi
A stare case that stops and looks
A book case that’s bereft of books
A cabin case that’s made of logs
A basket case for sleeping dogs
A sick bag filled with diced carrot
A Polly bag for my dead parrot
A hard case made of real soft leather
A heavy case load that’s as light as a feather
A nutcase that’s allergic to nuts
An open case that usually shuts
An Uppercase of gold and lace
A lower case that knows it’s place
A suit case that hasn’t matched
An egg case, recently hatched
A fox fur bag that loves to hunt
A case in point that’s always blunt
A pillow case that’s lost its stuffing
An Air bag needing lots of puffing
A diplomatic bag that likes to offend
A body-bag I don’t want to befriend
A saddle bag that’s never been on a horse
A schoolbag expelled that showed no remorse
A hopeless case that’s full off hope
A laundry bag that’s full of soap
A paper bag with no headlines to read
A briefcase that’s slow knowing nothing of speed

No carry-on luggage for me to take on
My case unfortunately is a very sad one
