Her nimble fingers moved deftly and quickly
Over rows of wool, crochet hooks to and fro
Sewing invisible threads of love dearly
A rare, delicate patchwork that made her glow
Memories of a handmade quilt fit snugly
Woven with tales of joy, with seamless flow
Like a tapestry of life stitched patiently
Sweet day dreams of her that never cease to grow
*This form of poetry is known as Strambotto.
