Grandma's Quilt

A Poem by BlueShadow

The Quilt


My grandmother made a quilt for me a long time ago

Knitted with love, tender heart, and sweetness

She knitted stars, moons, fairies, and magic into it

To this day I still have my quilt and it’s in my closet

I love how wonderful and beautiful my quilt is

Soft to the touch and wonderful to put over yourself

It reminds me of her cooking, presence, and aura

I love the lime green and yellow quilt she made me

The quilt is extraordinarily beautiful and intricate

So dear to me and so valuable and so precious

Grandma isn’t here anymore, just sadness and longing

But I still have a fragment of her, a twenty square foot one

The quilt eases the pain and the loss of losing a loved one

I love the quilt and its amazing and soft touch

It reminds me heaven is up there… somewhere
