| Stitches in Time There has always been a satin thread That held your heart to mine And a year ago we connected Those treasured stitches of time We cannot pull out the stitches No matter how hard we try Or make up for the yesterdays And the times that have passed us by The day that I left, you embroidered your love In a special corner of my soul The words "I will always love you" With satin thread and tears of gold And through the years that satin thread Attached two hearts and kept us strong It sewed our family back together And took me back to where I belong And in my sewing box of memories There is a special day in November When everything I always dreamed about Became a day I'll always remember Our lives are like a patchwork quilt Each stitch connects your life to mine Pieces of yesterday, sewn together with love With treasured stitches of time. November 2003 To my Mother, with all my heart and love The month of November will always be special to me. I will remember it as a time when everything I ever dreamed about in all my life became reality. |
