Pantoum of Gratitude

Spencer Gallup

I have wrapped myself in my warm blanket
the blanket provides comfort like a hug
a barrier from the rest of the world 
the warm, cozy blanket fills me with love 

The blanket provides comfort like a hug
a hug that never fails to make me smile
the warm, cozy blanket fills me with love 
especially on this very cold night 

A hug that never fails to make me smile
the soft and fluffy texture helps me sleep 
especially on this very cold night 
I am drifting off into the dreamland 

The soft and fluffy texture helps me sleep 
a barrier from the rest of the world 
I am drifting off into the dreamland 
I have wrapped myself in my warm blanket.
