When visiting my family.
I was given.
A great surprise.
A treasure.
Beyond words.
Delivered in brown cardboard.
From a cousin.
I haven't seen.
In far too many years.
Inside.
A quilt.
Sewn by the hands.
Of my beloved great grandmother.
One that my own grandmother.
Had never seen.
It has been mine.
For three days now.
Everytime I look at it.
Tears well in my eyes.
My cousin stated.
She wanted to hand it on.
To someone that would cherish it.
Love it.
Pass it on.
To the next generation.
I am speechless.
Touched.
In awe.
Of such a beautiful.
Unexpected gift.
