Well it’s been a while!!

  Another Missing Piece

( on the passing of a friend)

Like a jigsaw puzzle
Without a box
No frame of reference
Another bit  goes missing

I cling to the memories
That time takes
We laughed and joked
Brief but comforting

Before we said our goodbyes
Scattering like Pieces of a puzzle
Poured from life’s box
To face uncertain thoughts

Of

     Love
Loss
           Tears stifled

We pack away these Pieces

Till the next call or note informs of
Another missing piece
