Quilted Together
July 12, 2009
A family's bond does not break,
Or correct you to give you guilt.
I reflect and see the best explanation,
A family is like a quilt.
Stitched together at the beginning,
Refusing to ever tear.
Sewn together with great love,
Compassion, joyness, and care.
It never gets expired,
And gets only a little worn.
Each stitch depends on each other,
Together they celebrate and mourn.
It goes through everything imaginable,
Clearly is strongly built.
And this is why it's obvious,
A family is like a quilt.

Wow, this poem really describes every family. "It goes through everything imaginable, clearly is strongly built". Very well put!
