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
