mind the gap.

Posted on by

there should be a word

for the feeling you get

after you work many hours

to complete

a beautiful jigsaw puzzle

only to find

there is a piece missing.

from which many pieces have disappeared.

these gaps can be filled only by his imagination.’

  8. I can’t see a missing puzzle piece but boy, do I LOVE the quote. That would make a terrific motto for 2020 – replace the missing parts/bits/memories/ with imagination. Lovely….. great work as always, Beth. Thank You.
