We first search as we start
picture this, a scene thought
find a match, fit a part
rolling hills as they fought
comments fly, some may cheat
piece by piece the board clears
who may hurt as ends meet
taking form raising fears

A meadow becomes seen
ice so forms over love
as its fields become clean
the puzzle, like a glove
fit to end all thats seen
piece by piece the board clears
trees grown deep and between
tender blades bending fears

Often seen not to see
for any two sides tried
the picture most rarely
only one not denied
fitting to mounting fears
piece by piece the board clears
the scene new as end nears
atleast found, lost in tears

Thank you both for your comments. This is a more personal piece with a message to heart and may not be understood. But yet it seems to show how irregularity still has its place.
It fit its purpose, thank you again.
