Poetry Friday

From Quilts by Nikki Giovanni:

When I am frayed and strained and drizzle at the end
Please someone cut a square and put me in a quilt
That I might keep some child warm

Full poem here.

I almost forgot: Kelly at Big A little a has the roundup.

O what a beautiful poem! She says it perfectly. Someone please put me in the same quilt. Or at least in a similar pattern...
