My grandma's hands, My mum's lap, My dad's chest, Were ideal pillows, But, my pillow, My bedfellow, My partner of crimes, In all my emotional times, Has a story to tell. Night is when she lets go, I, the pillow bear the blow. I get tossed, thumped and battered when she is angry, And when she is full of joy, I am smooched with hugs,kisses and cuddles, When she is sad, I witness her pain, She can fool anybody but not me, Her tears pour out on me , I am drenched, At last she falls asleep, Curled into a ball, hugging me tightly. I smell of her, I love her, I understand the pain of her tears, The ecstasy of her laughter, And all her secrets I hold within me. She and I, forever together. 11/2/2019

My Pillow
My grandma's hands, My mum's lap, My dad's chest, Were ideal pillows, But, my pillow, My bedfellow, My partner of crimes, In all my emotional times, Has a story to tell. Night is when she lets go, I, the pillow bear the blow. I get tossed, thumped and battered when she is angry, And when she is full of joy, I am smooched with hugs,kisses and cuddles, When she is sad, I witness her pain, She can fool anybody but not me, Her tears pour out on me , I am drenched, At last she falls asleep, Curled into a ball, hugging me tightly. I smell of her, I love her, I understand the pain of her tears, The ecstasy of her laughter, And all her secrets I hold within me. She and I, forever together. 11/2/2019
