JIGSAW
You live your life
like a jigsaw,
millions of fragments
scattered all about,
small misshapen moments
fill your life.
There is a smile
you as a child,
sometimes small pieces
will create a tear
your jigsaw is spread out everywhere.
Yet sadly you will never
lay down the final piece,
that will be left
in the hands
of your kith 'n' kin.
About this poem
A jigsaw creates a picture, and so does your life.
