A Broken Ornament How I fixed It

An ornament fell
Quickly to the floor
An angel object
She holds a lantern
Held held high in her hand
When the angel fell 

The lantern came off
When the angel fell 
I grabbed the scotch tape
Now the angel fixed
She is good as new

Dear Darlene, this is such a delightful poem to read and enjoy. Your words make it easy to visualise the little angel falling and breaking and then your quickness in being able to repair it again back to its former glory. So lovely. Put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing. Hugs to you xx

Dear Darlene, I loved how you beautifully captured the simple act of repairing a broken ornament with care and resourcefulness. It's the value in small gestures of restoration, turning a fractured moment into one of renewed beauty. Your words speak with the idea that imperfections can be embraced and transformed into something whole again. Darlene, this touching reflection on resilience and repair. - Blessings, Daniel

These things happen when decorating the tree. It seems the nicest ornaments break first. There is a bit of nostalgia to the story.
