Pieces

To see it all

Is impossible from here

Instead it takes time

To feel the way the parts have not quite fit –

To force them

Like living tomorrow before it happens

Won’t get you closer than second guessing this moment

Reach inside

Breathe into your heart and feel the spaces between

Ask what they are yearning for

And listen

Send love

and listen

They may shout and jump

Or slowly trickle

But listen

Your puzzle is building itself at its pace

 

You aren’t broken

Only building

    I love this. Beautiful poem. I like looking at time & the journey this way. It gives me the feeling of you reflecting and at the same time looking more closely at the process through a magnifying glass. Through your present life’s lens & friendly poetic reminder, we are not broken after all, rather we are reinventing our lives and “the plan” moment by moment. Gracefully done!
