Sing a puzzle piece lullaby

Honey sweet to my ears

Bringing back pieces of me

Taken home as souvenirs

Lay them on the table

And look for the edges first

Then put them together

Finding my agony reversed

I am bound, determined

To send you smiles everyday,

Until the puzzle is complete, packaged with happiness I can send your way,

Along with the cardboard box

Holding all the pieces of me.
