A Quilt
A family clan is like a handmade quilt,
Pieced together through love and care.
Each new member adds a square,
Each departed is remember there.
Some squares are bright and colorful,
Others more subdued.
Each enhance the other one,
Bringing out its hue.
When a member is far away,
We bend our heads and pray,
That we may be blanketed with,
Their love and care each day.
