Notes About The Poem

29th August 2024

Thy Quilt be Done

God stitches together our life story A patchwork quilt sewn meticulously With all the best and tough times included Not any experience excluded. God watches over us and it does seem That He doth perfectly sew a fine seam Our quilt keeps on growing out in the mist So we leave behind His wonderful gift. Every stitch is sewn in with tender care Each patch having unique stories to share Stories telling all that we are made of Our worries, troubles and mostly our love. Reminders of all the deeds we have done Plenty to recall, all happiness spun Then when the quilt has come to completion Hopefully it's a worthy achievement. Each patch is a piece of our history The essence that makes up who's you and me Tears and fears that our ups and downs arouse The laughter, the smiles that wrinkle our brows. Thank God for His love and His tender care For the quilt that'll warm someone's heart somewhere.

Never seen life compared to a carefully made quilt but it makes sense. Great metaphor

Thank you Tom, I suppose one could say, “the stitching up is the summing up.” ~ Beryl
