Description
A Puzzle
I have all the pieces
Of this puzzle
Called life
Putting them together
Is a task
I'm beginning to think
Is never quite done
Just when I thought I had
Just the right piece
For just the right place
I was wrong
It looked like
It belonged
But it didn't
So now I'll
Look them all over
Yet again
Study them carefully
Figure out
Just where they
Really belong
And I'll keep at it
Get all those pieces
Where they belong
And someday
I'll see the big picture
And know I finally
Got it right

Black lies, white lies and statistics. Accident statistics. Copays and no fault. The crystal ball swishes and then the image is gone.

Love your narrative. I think we all have that perception of the pieces at times.

This reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: "Here is a test to find whether your mission on earth is finished: If you're alive, it isn't." -- Richard Bach Sometimes those puzzle pieces can be tricky, but if it's in the pile, it fits somewhere ... even if it's in the part labeled "Well, THAT didn't work!"

Life is like a pie, you slice it up into eight piece's and eat one, try as you might to get it back together it aint going to go, so you eat it all and start over again. Bake another pie, well thats what I keep doing. It aint a pie thats oin the oven right now though, I have just put the Christmas Cake in and the aroma thats wafting through the house is devine. I soaked the fruit in rum and orange juice for a week just to plump it out a bit, I drank what juice hadn't soaked in. Excellent bit of writing Marylin, I know where you're coming from. Superb work. Bravo!!!!!

Very well executed on your part. 5+.

When Winston Churchill said, "It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma..." he was speaking of Russia. I prefer to think this phrase can be applied across the board. Good work.

Great stuff here, and it reflects SO MUCH of what everyone goes through at one point or another. I love the puzzle piece analogy as well, because the pieces don't always fit where you expect them in life, but they always fit somewhere...and the fun part is having that pile of no-fit pieces, because in some way, that's what life is all about. The stuff that doesn't fit is always the stuff that's so interesting. This whole piece is well executed and engaging.

Vivid colors depicted in this stellar abstract approach to the neon city, Marilyn! As for your puzzle in re the caprices of life, I don't have anything to say at this juncture...especially after reading tallpindo's soliloquy.

Few weeks ago I decided to live 200 hundred years! Well, it is not a joke! I know it is possible! I like your poem!!!
