The Quilt

The Quilt

A Poem by KeelyJane

Give up all control, you never really have it anyway
Live your life the best you can, deal with things day by day
Handle what's in front of you, instead of worry what lies ahead
Fate is the needle, and we are just the thread
Accept things for what they are, it's important we understand
Every obstacle has a purpose in our makers master plan
Every stitch is a milestone, every turn plays a part
Life is one big quilt, a blanket made of heart

Very enchanting and pleasing to read and understand. I often feel there is an invisible thread that connetcs me to others and time and distance only stregthens it grip. Very cool

I love the spirituality in this piece. We can't control what happens to us day to day. Everyday is a lesson, a message, don't miss it.

Wow....you speak the truth here!! Love the comparison of life and a quilt. Each moment of our lives make up the remnants from which a work of art is made. Superb prose!!

"Fate is the needle, and we are just the thread" - Love this line. Good metaphors; a solid piece.

Lovely words and metaphors...I love the fourth line, I'm not sure how to explain it but it just seems to belong there within the context of the entire piece...well done Keely :)

Liked the subject and how you have structured it but suggest:

Give up all control, you never really have it anyway
Live your life the best you can, deal with things day by day
Handle what's in front of you, don't worry what lies ahead
Fate is the needle, and we are just the thread
Accept things for what they are, it's important we understand
Every obstacle has a purpose in our makers master plan
Every stitch is a milestone, every turn plays a part
Life is one big quilt, a blanket made to warm the heart
