"PIECES"
by Becky Hemsley

I watched her drop the mirror
Saw her face adopt the fear
That she would now be destined
To bad luck for seven years
There were hundreds, maybe more
And she noticed how they caught the light
In ways they’d not before
The light was bouncing everywhere
All spirited and bright
A hundred little mirrors
Bringing all that light to life
So she picked up all the pieces
Whilst she still had every chance
And she turned her bad luck
Into opportunities to dance
And if you ever watched her
You’d have noticed how she smiled
How she moved and shimmered
Like her soul had come alive
And if you didn’t know her secret
You would not consider
That the glitterball she danced around
Was once a broken mirror
