Virgin jigsaw pieces, all shiny, fresh, and new
exposed to light, to make their grand debut
the colours of each piece all vibrant and clear
anticipation grips you to see the picture appear
enthusiasm wanes, you’ll return to it again
but it sits for some time and exists as a frame
the box it gets battered and the image will fade
you lose a few pieces along the way
some are found but others are lost
and it can’t be completed at any cost
finally discarded as it’s now incomplete
ends up as landfill on the trash heap.
