My Afgan

Some people here
Take for granted
That they can
Visit their grandmother
Anytime they want

Just before the
Holidays
I hear people saying
That they'll be going to
Their grandparents' house
Then they roll their eyes
I look at them in
Envy

The last time
I saw my grandma
Was in 2007
I used to see her
All the time

Not too long ago
She sent me an afgan
Everytime I use it
I feel her near
I know she's close to me
Despite the distance
