lying so lightly in my hand,
the marvel of you demanding my attention.

My Patchwork Quilt...Patchwork quilt, upon my bed.
Made with love, needle and thread.
Bits of fabric from worn out clothes,

Who resembled a fat runner bean.

Stumbled badly in a squeaky ......

The Firmament of My Heaven...The Firmament of my Heaven
The work, the words
The worries, the wits
They are lazy today
