Fragmented Heart

Fragmented heart...

a jigsaw puzzle

yet to be completed,

a work of art

waiting for the perfect brushstroke,

a symphony

waiting for the perfect orchestration,

a poem

waiting for the perfect rhyme,

an empty shell

waiting for the Master's touch.

Another beautiful poem that says so much with so few words, that packs a lot of power in a little space that touches the reader's heart as soon the reader begins to read it.

Isn't it wonderful knowing that there are still pictures to be painted, symphonies to be written, and hearts can be mended?

What Clare Stella said, while wearing her dear smile.
Another lovely poem.

Well done. This is not a mixed metaphor; it's a concert of metaphors which work well.
