Upon a Field of Quilts

With a field of quilts 

they were married

in the picture it’s a

mere background of

color but if you were

there – there, in the

picture, you’d see

the invitation written

in the fields:  Come 

lie with me and be

my love . . . come,

let us claim the fields

as our very own 

eternal ‘spanse of joy

life together amidst

the tender hands of

mas and grandmas

and aunts and cousins

stitching our life upon

the fields we inhabit

in our dreams

__________
For Casey & Justin Siron on their 2nd anniversary.  What a privilege it was to be there with you both amidst a field of quilts.  Blessings upon blessings for every year yet to come.
