Because We Cannot Be in Two Places at Once...



Because we cannot be
In two places at once
The part of me
That used to be
With you misses
You, hon

Because we cannot be
In two places at once
We fill the air
Twixt us with prayer
And leave the rest
To God

Because we cannot be
In two places the same
The blanket of
Memories, love
Warms every
Picture frame

PAD Challenge day 3: write a blanket poem

Our daughter and son-in-law just returned home after visiting his family in Nova Scotia. Good-byes are hard at both ends because one simply cannot be in two places at once!
