Morgan's Quilts

There's something special about Morgan's quilts the fabrics blend like a romantic rendezvous colors race like a comet in some or stand like still water in others like a gypsy patterns dance or sing of lullaby in a windy whisper It's hard to pick a favorite I like them all because they fit my moods Each quilt has a story...a life and feverishly pulls it's own history methodically before your eyes thread by thread united in oneness by love and a gift of warmth and reminiscent charm Bits of cloth join as if born into family never judging...but giving disregarding color, caste, nationality only concerned with a common creed To be shaped by Morgan's hands in to art that God wills because much is required of those that much is given and Morgan is a giver Yes, there's something special about Morgan's quilts and only he can tell their stories

Being a senior from Miss. I come from a quilting heritage. Looking back and thinking I often slept with them. they kept uou warm. The designs were extra. But they tell of a time gone by before TV.

This poem was about Dr Robert Morgan my university professor who is now in his 80s but is was a quilt maker. Interesting enough he taught at my Christian college in the bible belt Carolina but is VERY feminine. I think he was gay before it was as open. Still love him he is brilliant.
