Odds and ends
The story of life
A collage of
Odds and ends
The fool picks up
Odds and ends
Adds a dash of color
Throws in some excitement
Shuffles them to
Present a story
The youth thinks
Life is a smooth silk fabric
Lustrous and sheen
With designs embellished
But it turns out
To be a patch work cloth
Bits and pieces
Of people, places, things
Some wanted
Some uncalled
Others unexpected
The curious inquisitive minds
Pick up odds and ends
Never know where
It will fit in some corner
Though past is history
Often skewed by
That forgotten
It is not just our perception
But events and people
Pushed to the subconscious
The distorted memory
Of odds and ends
Some visible
Some dark
The evident affected
By what is concealed
Life is composed
Of odds and ends.
Life is made up of such odds and ends. Well said. Loved this poem
