BROKEN                                                                                            
By D. E. Allen                                                                                                                                             

You had a broken handle when you first came to me.
Thrown away just like broken people are,
in our society.


So I took some epoxy putty and a new handle for you I made.
Then I restored you to your rightful place,
beside my garden hoe and spade.
 

For a tool some thought to be broken, you have more to give I see.
That is why I like my mended garden tool so much,
it is so much like me.
