Missing from the quilt
a piece with a story
a mystery a fairy tale
a heart a soul

Missing from the quilt
the stuffing and the tears
torn up and raggity
like a little girls
favorite doll

A puzzle
still,
is incomplete,
until the last piece
falls in place.

A jig-saw scene
of holding hands--
reveals the final grace.

smiles to you. Enjoyed this much. I hope you don't mind the impromptu poetry--you've inspired me!

There was nothing 'missing' from this poem, absolutely beautiful ...
'Missing from the quilt
the stuffing and the tears
torn up and raggity
like a little girls

...Wonderful words, the torn stuffing toy imagery was lovely, enjoyed this very much .
Thanks, L.of.L. Tom .

Missing from the quilt
a piece with a story

It sounds like the important piece was missing...the piece that told the story...
Very vivid imagery, Kellie...
Well expressed.
