Notes About The Poem

A Tapestry of Inviting Medleys

She sat for hours 
Needle in hand
Stitching in silence 
Inviting medleys 

She stitched together 
Hues happy and glad
Brilliant and vibrant 
Inviting medleys

She threaded her needle
Gently with patience 
Taking time to create 
Inviting medleys 

She laced each stitch 
Careful, a caress
Against soft fabric 
Inviting medleys 

She pieced each square 
Rectangle or triangle 
Together with care
Inviting medleys 

She gave her heart 
To the pieces she sewed 
Weaving hope with her thoughts 
Inviting medleys 

She held out the quilt 
Sensational dreams 
Blowing on souls 
Inviting medleys 

She gave them away 
Pieces of her love
Graceful praise 
Inviting medleys 

She was always laughing 
Alive with compassion 
Filling her stitches with light
Inviting medleys 

She wove love and hope
Into her quilts
Delighting spirits
Inviting medleys

L Milton Hankins September 27, 2021 at 10:21 AM Beautiful, Gina. I have some quilts hidden away in a chest that were stitched, I am sure, with medleys. Good writing, as usual.

Judy Ball September 27, 2021 at 8:07 AM Love this Gina. I picture someone's mother or grandmother who, like me, loved t make quilts. And when she was done she gave them away to people who would always remember her generosity when they saw this beautiful lasting piece of her. Good stuff. God Bless, JB
