The Blanket (Hour 2)

Just over two decades old

It’s seen better days

The fabric fading, aged

Evident signs of use

One side a plain, pale pink

The other white and baby blue

With tiny squares, hearts,

And baby buggies

The stitching isn’t straight

But I run my fingers over the threads

And feel the care imbued into it

When it was crafted and put together

Wrapped around me 

Like a warm hug

Reaching across the years

A sister’s labor of love
