Ode to a Quilt

Steven West
My multi-patterned quilt
Is a sight to behold.
It has many wonderful colors,
Including green, yellow, and gold.

It's heaven to my body,
So comfortable and grand.
Just one touch of my quilt
Will send you off to Zzzz land.

Sleepy eyes will close shut.
You'll dream about scented flowers.
And when you wake up,
You'll be ready for a cold shower.

When guests come over,
They marvel at my quilt.
But should they go and touch it,
I will feel a sense of guilt.

I musn't let foreign hands
Touch my marvelous quilt.
It will make me so very sad
That I will start to wilt.
