"The Hope Chest" In a chest from childhood came - a trove of stuff when I changed my name - things my Mother said -were for kitchens to the bed - dishes,pots and pans - to put on all kinds of stands - Lord those linens and towels - do I have enough dowels - but the magic came from the chest Grandpa built - when I unrolled all those old quilts - the DresdenPlate and the Fans - quilted by my Grandmother's hands - the Double Wedding Ring - made from all my calico things - years of memories came floating by - and even tho happy - I just sat and cried - will my children know - the meaning of that - so long ago - I will leave them all a treasure - hope they know the simple pleasure - of my love - when I go to the great above! by Melody Wilson-Bowers
