tattered & torn...

many years

of

healing warmth

 

and love

from this quilt

my very first

paper pieced

hexagon

 stitched by hand while

i was in college

this week

it was my comfort

while i slept

in a chair

due to a frozen

back after

shoveling the drive

there are places

that need repaired

but i can't bring

myself to do so

as the vision

is so alive

when i think

of my

kiddos

curled up

underneath

when they

were not feeling

 so well

i cherish those

memories

and each thread

that is hanging

and

seam that is

 torn open

is there

from their

tiny hands

yet

comforted hearts
