The mirror broke into a million pieces Pieces big and small, sharp and blunt I looked into the broken mirror,a million me Who was me,Where could I be Each piece was unique, each was a different me Yet each was a leaf from the same tree The piece at the top was big, I was the king, the despot Who enjoyed life,leaving his subjects to suffer and rot The piece at the bottom, very small,I was a farmer growing rice The farmer who hated the king for all his vice Pieces showed me that I was some one else, some where between My shades varying from the bloody red to the grassy green Life is a big jigsaw puzzle,the mirror showed An important lesson taught,in front of the mirror I bowed Life is a mixture of times good and bad, happy and sad Life is what you are and not what you had Life is a woman with charm,a man with wisdom A child with innocence, life swings like the pendulum Put the pieces together, blunt,sharp,big and small Life`s calling, answer her call
