My life is in broken pieces

Life is in broken pieces

My cat jumped up and broke the screen
The shards were picked up and thrown away
Some people collect and collect
The books not read for many a day

The computer files never again opened
The papers in some very dusty file
But rays of sunshine when an old letter
Makes me shed my gloom, relax and smile

The thermos flask has a cracked stopper
The umbrella is torn, luckily lost
My life is like that in broken pieces
But new letters from friends are in the post

QWe cannot stop the march of time
A sunny day stays in the memory
Old cats still enjoy the sunshine
Somone gives me a perfect cup of tea
