KippsQuilt11

When my son graduated from high school,
I made him a quilt.

Simple blocks
of fabrics decorated
by his family, friends, and teachers.

It is not perfect a perfect quilt.
I am not a perfect mother.

But it does keep him warm,
hold him tightly when my arms can’t reach,
and shelter him when the world is just too much.
