Virtual Tuck-In
Appearing in pajamas
Right before they go to sleep,
My grandkids’ faces fill the screen
And oh, the joy I’ll reap!
While one gives a detailed run-down
Of what she has done that day,
Her big brother wants me watching
On his tablet while at play.
Technology allows me
Access to their night routines
As I track them in their bedrooms
On our separate iPhone screens.
There’s a very tiny window
When they’ll want to thus connect
But for now these FaceTime tuck-ins
Have a tickled-pink effect.
