The Missing Piece

When I was created many years ago I felt I was in pieces, so went with the flow A piece of me here, a piece of me there In fact I had pieces almost everywhere I never gave it a great deal of thought Until to my attention one day it was brought Someone said gather all your pieces in I tried to collect them but hopes were thin My piece’s I found from everywhere Just leaving one little space spare Like the jigsaw incomplete The statue with the clay for feet One day someone said to me I am this piece if you will let me be The piece did fit and held me tight Eons in coming but the timing just right.. My missing piece did me complete Never now no more with clay for feet A whole person I can now be That is what this piece has done for me. ©23/03/2013 ~GG~

Dear Sis, Hope this finds YOU and YOURS and Mine,Healthy and High in the Spirit. I've always thought YOU were complete.I always look up to YOU to help me whole. YOU didn't find an extra piece,I think it's my link to the human race? I just read harry h's POEM "Living POETRY" to congratulate him for his Win in Dan Kearley's contest "One of YOUR Greatest Days" I see YOU commented on the POEM before he Won. Are YOU going to send Congrats now? With LOVE Always and FOREVER YOUR Eternal Brother Harry

I picture an image of completeness or wholeness, something that boosts our view of self and the world. This poem has an inspiring tone to it. Great.
