hmmm

    I was alone in my life

    Work, eat, sleep, basically marking time

    Day in and day out with the loneliness tucking me in

    Like the blankets on my bed on a cold winter night



    An invitation, an enticement

    Peeling back a small corner of the blanket

    I crawl out for a glimpse

    A shimmer of hope, a sliver of happiness



    More involvement, more connecting

    The blanket starts sliding toward the edge

    not quite falling to the floor

    Maybe it's me who is falling



    Awakening, smiling, big stretch

    The blanket on the floor at the end of the bed

    I look inside and out

    Should I pack it away or do you think it will snow
