Life Is a patchwork quilt,

Little islands of memories

stitched together over time.

Some good, some bad,

Some faded ,half remembered

some barely seen beneath the stitches breaking free

Islands of moments

dancing like dolphins

from a sea of mundane actions

Already I'm amazed

how your eyes are glazed

and my hopes demolished

Life is a sea of mistakes & triumphs

It was fun but I saw through it

just in time

I'm not your great escape

Your Visa application

is out of time

Life is a patchwork quilt

but I'm not stitching you in mine.

The ending is not what I expected. It seems so dreadfully sad. I do hope it is not based on a true experience.

Wow indeed and not what I expected either for the ending. Peace and love be with you.

The last line,MM,reminds me of my father who replied to a letter from my mother[a good while before they were married] saying that she had met a rather nice young man who had asked her for a date. My father sent my mother a postcard with the message : INCLUDE ME OUT !

Mmnnn...hope not based on fact, Mark,

a far cry from the posts before the new year started....

but I like the use of the metaphoric quilt and stitching coming undone, nice work, Zy
