The Puzzeling Life We Lead

Readers beware A scrambled mix of puzzlement Pieces everywhere Fingers, toes Eyes, Nose In the new world Find our first corner New start to finding a match Attach Compare the choices in the pile In the box.. Think outside the box! New strategy you are growing wise Upside down to right side Inside our minds it's the puzzle Jumble We find order in the chaos Love the way its made to be solved Each pawn is a perfect hunt Nothing short of brilliance will make or break this game of life It's meant to be unraveled Unscrambled Unhinged and re hinged, 'Til the pieces fit 'Til the sequence of shapes link up into our story No, its not brilliance, it's time Time to sit down with the unanswered questions No one knows more than the other, there's only one way to solve this puzzle The pieces need played There are all in front of you Right there Grab a choice, if it's wrong, remember it Somewhere aside "I know I will need that one again" It's not necessarily strategy, all though game plan is helpful Like life Strategy can be strategic, but outcome uncertain Outcomes can be misleading, Not pleasing Choose to stick to the ultimate goal to make them pieces all fit into one to make it seem worth the time you spent to solve the jigsaw -Jess
