Many already fit in place
To the borders I have laid

But the piece in the middle
Is the puzzle never paid.

If it were a purchase
I would have pennied every cent

But it was something given me
and for only time was lent.

Very touching poem if I am understanding it correctly.  Too bad time is so damned fleeting.  It rushes by so fast, so obstinant in its unyielding course.  It can be friend and your greatest foe.  your prayer answered, or the reason tears flow so freely.  As I wrote before though, in the end, time shall befriend us all.  Great writing.  It was touching and beautiful.  I do not have the talent to put such a profound message in so few words.  So well done, further words are failing me here.

Your poetic friend,

Kevin

Down with those borders, m'dear...
and come puzzle along with me...
for with all the facts we have at hand,
they only lend themselves to mysteries...

me like!

Kevo,  
   Thanks for your response.  You probably understood it as well as I do!  It was nice to hear from you again.
          Sadelite

Martie,
   You are one sweet lady!  Thank you for your kindness.
          Sadelite

Dixie,
   I'm glad you liked it.  Thanks, Passing Shadow.
           Sadelite

Goodknight,
   You always say the nicest things.  Take care.  It's good to  see you posting again.
           Sadelite

to my Pondering Earthy Angel,
   I feel a person is made up of bits of other people and experiences with them.  I just cringe at losing any of the pieces.
Realistically... one is bound to have to modify the puzzle now and then.
   Thank you for taking time to ponder my thoughts.  I appreciate it.  You are truly an angel.

Glad you like it; I hadn't thought about it in that way, but yes, the middle can be restricting!
and, yes, I always seem to want to be in a different situation than I am.  Well, most always...  I get your drift.
  
"well formed, informed."  
Collen.
"hey, does anyone know how to change the user name without making a new account?"   You're very perceptive. Thanks for your thoughts, Collen.
                       :P


Susan,
   I'm glad you enjoyed.  Thanks for your kindness.

The way I am interpreting this...
life was given to us and, though we aren't given everything we think we need, it is, afterall, a gift.
Maybe we need to learn to rearrange the puzzle? Or maybe we just learn to survive without...
Either way, I love this poem!
Good to be back and to read you

Always, Alyssa

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

GG,
   The borders only fit one way.  Sometimes, one just has to live without, knowing that the other piece is safe somewhere else, and is an important piece in a different puzzle.
   It's good to hear from you again.  Thanks for stopping by...
