A Piece in the Mosaic

 
Each day fits in together - as a small piece
In the building of a life’s final mosaic
With moments to tender a heart’s ease
As each of us is connected in a small way.
 
Her weathered and gentle eyes entered the room
Escorted by a charmingly insouciant smile.
They told of a full life lived in full bloom
And too, of few scars of splintered pain.
 
As the evening’s partying hour wane
Her mosaic became clear to be full in the magic
Of woman, with a girl’s reign,
Cherishing each of life’s fragment and piece
 
That holds, as such, each hour of each day of living.
Her experiences the sections and the parts in long life’s sake
And kept with trust and with cherish; for the heart is forgiving -
Matter not, which shard or splinter may wound the skin. 
 
A recounting of how he had noticed her long before she would know
That from all harm he would always stand
To shield her from a broken cut or a shattering blow
Thus, a shinning knight to her Guinevere’s hand.
 
She had gathered and kept all the pieces with loving care
So that now their love story creates a beautiful mosaic
Melded, with the many pieces of an amaranthine love affair,
Into a keepsake bracelet that tells an old fashion love story.
