I love your poem!! I too wrote a poem inspired by quilting this past January. If you'd like to read it here it is 🙂;

Thanks, Marnie! :)

I like the line from your poem that says, "Thank god we don't all go mad on the same day". It's interesting to think on.

It’s good to read this one again, especially:

“we would accept

all of us are just

hanging on by threads”
