Over Time

Over time the rose teacup fell and shattered.
I saved the saucer.
The lid to the French Quarter white teapot
was lost somewhere. I saved the teapot.
The green teapot was dropped to a tile floor.
I saved the lid.
Well. I put it all together, and I like it.
The white teapot sits nicely in the rose saucer.
The green lid matches a green leaf in the rose.
Perfection is no longer required.
Over time, many things about myself
have been shattered, lost and dropped.
I put what’s left together, and it’s alright.
Perfection is no longer required.
