TWO BOWLS

Wednesday Muse asks us to write a poem
inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi (repair
of that which is broken with golden glue).
Each gold-veined piece has a story to tell!

TWO BOWLS

Two bowls sit upon the shelf
One pristine, without a blemish,
filled with pride in self
no stories
to tell

The other gold-glued with signs of living
of failures and success
 love and loss
adventures,
bumps and falls
lessons learned
joy of achievement
life well lived
filled only with love
and stories
to tell
