Spilled from a box –
some up, some down.
Figure a fit
to build around.
Don’t force the edge,
but hold on to the one you’ve found
The picture within forms
from without.
Piece by piece
we come together
with patience and trust,
but won’t get to see
the complete portrait
without some
puzzle dust.
Weathering it out –
sometime’s stuck’s just stuck.
Doubling back at least
we’ll share twice as much.
Every work must be
a work in progress.
With the corners set,
the rest is just
puzzle dust.
Piece by piece
we come together
with patience and trust,
but won’t get to see
the complete portrait
without some
puzzle dust.
Piece by piece
we come together
with patience and trust,
but won’t get to see
the complete portrait
without some
puzzle dust.
Piece by piece by piece by piece
by piece by piece by piece by piece –
Piece by piece by piece
the rest is nothing but
puzzle dust.
