Enigma

i cant count the puzzle pieces
but if you must, multiply 365 days
by 20 years,
add 12 months, and a gallon of tears
to try to gather the gist of the puzzle...
no, not even
the looks of the puzzle
can come to be deceiving

for you can't gather
all the pieces of the puzzle
to make a perfect picture
for that will desecrate
what i am, an enigma
thats what makes me great..
you can gather pieces put you can never
find them all....
but you still continue too look,
good luck with that

Another epic poem by Mr. Mason. I love this one - your free verse poems don't seem to be restricted by rhyme scheme - they are wonderful to read.
