The Satisfaction of a Well-Mended Thing

The line of gold along the crack,
Admits the break, but holds it back.
The careful stitch on worn-out cloth,
A victory against the moth.

There is a peace in making whole,
That satisfies the patient soul.
A quiet pride, a gentle art,
In mending a fractured heart.
