Blanket Mine
Squish you like a teddy bear,
Hold you nice and tight
just to feel your comfort
in my arms tonight.
Your smell is so familiar,
I have held you every year
since I was a child
I held you close and dear.
To me, you are so personal,
though tattered and a little old
I could not bear if you were gone
You keep me from the cold.
I have confided in you,
you have wiped away my tears
and even braced me in the dark
from all my hidden fears.
It is time I say goodbye,
Maybe pass you on
to be my child’s friend
here so safe at home.
At least I know you are safe,
I know you will be well
blanket you are my dearest friend
If you could talk, the stories you would tell.
