This is true senryu. It's slightly ironic, slightly self-depractaing, but it reflects what is so many lives, an unfinished jigsaw. The imagery is simple to follow but truly apt for the imperfect worlds we create for itself. Most people's lives have missing pieces, and for some the bits will never be found. Good philosophy, wrapped in a tiny poem.
Good luck in teh contest.

Beautiful and very authentic response to senryu yourself. We all have some pieces missing, indeed. Very funny and very universal. Beautiful.

Comment from Dom G Robles
This poem meets the requirement of the Snryu. The writer's life -- a jiogsaw puzzle with a few pieces missing." The writer claims she/he is imperfect and there are few things lacking, which is truly the case. But the imperfections was not revealed, although short to be expressed in the requirement (to state what you are), one could be specific and yet expressive. I did not see much in this poem. Try to qualify the "few pieces missing."

Love it! I think that many of us can relate to the sentiment expressed here. Just hope the missing pieces aren't essential ones. :)

At last, a senryu that makes sense. Thanks for posting and describing the life of most everyone. No one has all the pieces. Good luck with your prompt contest.

Like this one. Very clever. Life is definitely a puzzle, and having a few pieces missing can't be written better. Good luck with the contest. A pleasure to read. Les

Very well done. Your senryu on "yourself" read very smoothly and, in my opinion, applies to everyone I know including myself. I wish you well and good luck.

This would be an excellent phrase with which to start a story. You have said a lot in just a few words. You followed the prompt well.
