Blanket

Endless, endless, the possibilities are endless.
An item of comfort to be held
in times of distress.
A being of warmth that holds
you close when cold.
A cape to be worn to save the world
or a shelter from the world when
it is the one
that is cruel.
Material for a fort to hide
and play in.
Protection from the ground to lay
and tan on.
A toga to play act with.
A curtain to fall on your play.
Memories of times
and peoples
long past.
A symbol of what now is.
A blanket could be one or all
or none of these.
It is what is needed most
by the one who owns it.
