PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Now as I lay down to sleep

I pray to you my lord my soul you will keep

Please keep my children safe from harm

And always hold them within your loving arms

If I should die before I awake

Keep them happy with always a smiling face

Tell them to fear not that I am gone

For I am above them and I am not alone

Let them love you as much as i

And they will be with me again by your side

And if ever their feeling sad or blue

Make them look up to the stars

For I am with them always

And forever with you
