Quilt worthy

Those who quilt

have their secrets..

emerging patterns 

laced together..

an initiating flash

then flow of thread

filling the symmetry

with surprise..!

pained reluctance

those corrections..

finally uplifting joy..

 Those who quilt

then ask this question:
does the recipient
of this labored gift

resonate with even

one-tenth appreciation..?

 is she really
Quilt worthy...?
