i can piece together scraps
and tie up old ribbon
and weave a new story
out of old memories
and new friends
and tales of true emotion
heartache, heartbreak,
when there’s just a little more
at stake
echoes of laughter and music,
deep sea and vast distance
dip and weave
move and shake
from many pieces,
one does a quilt make
