THE PUZZLE
What happened to our puzzle,
It’s pieces once in place?
What happened to our puzzle,
Our home, our earth, our space?
What happened to the pieces?
Where did they all go?
What happened to the pieces,
Borrowed long ago?
Well, some were sold for profits dear
And some we lost because of fear.
Some have faded from misuse.
Some are covered with abuse.
Some we tore to isolate,
Some we broke to separate.
Some we burned beyond repair,
Most we used with little care.
And now it seems - that we must choose.
Restore each piece or the puzzle lose!
