Three Q’s

By Gypsie-Ami Offenbacher-Ferris

In response (I think) to ROUND 3 posted by f3gastonia

Explanation: I found this in my draft folder dated September 2022, never posted. I thought to go ahead and post it since my last post was somewhat depressing and this one would help elevate the mood and it has Christmas in it too!

Quicken winked at Quilt
when passing through one day
She blushed in hues of red and blue

Quilt looked up so shy and sweet
Her squares lined up perfectly
very straight and wonderfully neat

Demurely did she smile and say
Quicken you must quit this day
Friends we are and friends we’ll stay

Quilt I can not said Quicken to Quilt
Your colors do swirl and capture me Keeping me completely atilt

My weaver wove a heavenly cast
into my squares and meant to last
for years to come and was a gift

But this lovely quilt is not for you
Sewn with love so very true
A little boy I’ve been made for

So quit this day Quicken Sir
for it’s not here
this quilt will stay

But swaddling a babe
with care and love
early on Christmas Day
