She does not buy a puzzle pre solved
she buys it tattered,
unfinished,
waiting to be fixed.


Puzzles are a mind game.
Does she have the patience?
Does she have the mindset?


Step one is to open the box
and see what is inside.
She dumps the pieces out
before she gets started.


Now its time for step two:
She turns the pieces over
to see what she is working with.


Step three would be
to find the edges,
She straightens them out,
and makes her borders.


The last,
and most important step,
and the one that takes her the most time,
is to flip around,
turn,
and do whatever she can
to make sure that her puzzle
is perfect.


Puzzles do not come pre solved,
they take effort,
vision,
and a little bit of hard work.
