And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again? Archilochus

Points de Capiton

Don't discard
mismatched pieces
of your life
Let your colors
speak proudly
whisper pinks
brassy reds
gritty blacks and
soulful sapphires

Live wisely
but love foolishly
Kiss morning dew
Smell golden sunshine
Drink summer breezes
Embrace the heavens
Inhale ocean depths and
exhale life

Until each piece
of your life
is stitched
with tender memories
to warm loved ones
on cold winter nights
- Jenny Miller, "Patchwork Quilt" (2011)
