Puzzle Box

Emotions and memories
Kept in a box
Pieces of puzzles
Thoughts that we thought

Unpacking words
Fractured pictures
This one looks good
This one fits better

Write a short story
With so many words
Don’t use a thousand
Fifty will serve

Make a big picture
Show what you see
With plenty of feeling
Of life’s memories
