From Jane Yolen,
A Good Pal by Jane Yolen
A Good Pal
is both forward
and palliative,
both welcoming
and knows when to set a timer.
Turns on lights,
but can hold your hand
in the darkness as well,
pulling the covers over you
whenever they slip off,
and setting a soft pal’s palm
on the aching parts of your aging body.

brains bring contact of souls,
hearts,
and breath.
