The Missing Part
by
J. M. Hallett
Her full-length mirror shattered
And pieces scattered
All around the floor
In one sliver, he spied an eye
In another an ear
Another, a nose
Still other shards
Held different parts
Which ran from head to toe
So piece by piece
Like a jigsaw
He began to reconstruct
But the last little bit
For the final fit
Never did show up
After searching for the part
Which held her heart
Day after day... after day
He finally quit
Packed up to split
And threw the whole mess away
NEXT? Why don't you look at Joke by: Davide Riccio from: Turin, Italy
