Cats and Dolphins

You were always a grand mystery to me Just like that ten thousand piece puzzle I had always attempted Scrambling on the floor Trying to fit a million jigsaws together That were from different puzzles There was one in the corner of the room from a puzzle Of a few cats sitting in a wheelbarrow And ones from a dolphin in mid air Trying to flip through a hoop As mesmerizing as it was to finger through the pieces It sure was hell trying to shove them together But that's just it We can never shove the pieces of life together Especially someone else's It never works out So perhaps if you let that person be They'll figure out their own jigsaw Complete the cats in the wheelbarrow picture And finally see that dolphin jump through the hoop
