Life And Jigsaw Puzzles A Poem


Hi Puzzlers,

We wanted to share with you a poem we received a few years ago from one of you.

Life And Jigsaw Puzzles

If there are fifty pieces
A thousand or more.
The first plan of action
Is the organizing chore.


The straight edge borders
Are easy to spot.
In LIFE we all need borders
And limits---a lot.


The picture on the box
Allows on to see.
The completed scene
The jigsaw symphony.


An over abundance of
Of a particular hue.
Means to much of a thing
Results in a boring view.


Forcing a piece
In a place not intended.
Is like allowing one's self
Be too greatly extended.


What if a piece
Of the puzzle is gone?
The beauty is still there
And LIFE moves on.


Poem By L.M. Erickson

Happy Puzzling!
