Watch me as I stitch the cloth
Each patch a gift I give
Cradles you with all the warmth
For all the life you live

Each thread of life is special
The stitches strong will last
The love within my heart
Will share a sacred past

Watch me as I do this
So you can learn one day
To gather cloths of beauty
With memories to stay

Each story it will tell you
The softness you will feel
Every time you pick it up
Love's gentleness revealed

Then when I'm no longer here
Remember every stitch
Gathering the special times
Our love was so enriched

The pattern that I'm making
Love gathered so divine
Folded in your hope chest
My treasured love combined
