Covered With Love

Relationships are like blankets.
Blankets dull winter drafts and soften hard ground.

I want a quilt; specially made with a gentle touch.
It wraps me up and keeps me warm.
Memories in the fabrics,
Creativity in the design.

He wants a loosely knitted shawl; nothing too heavy.
He can move around easily and not know it’s there.
Versatility and practicality.

A quilt will take time; to make and to grow used to.
A shawl, too, takes time and needs a crafter’s touch.
Can we make a blanket together?

A new pattern, new materials, new thread.
New adventures, new romance, new love.

Or do I go back to sewing my quilt?
