Rhona Mcferran Poet Rhyme

Fractured, In Fact

I'm broken in pieces
I'm fractured, in fact
by more than a few
inexcusable acts

I try to acknowledge
each piece of my mind
or at least all the bits
that I still can find

An artist, a writer
aspiring poet-
perhaps other things
I don't even know yet!

Coming into my own
although now middle-aged
recovering wreckage
from the wars I have waged

I'm broken in pieces
yet, hopeful at last
for present and future
a change from the past...
