Off To Sleep

Contributed by Jeff_Scott_Morehead on Thursday, 6th January 2005 @ 08:54:25 PM in AEST
Topic: ChildrensPoetry



Off To Sleep
~~~~
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Your hand in mine I promise to keep
Let me hold you through-out the night
A sense of safety until morning light

I pray pleasant thoughts enter your mind
From the moment of sleep until morning time
You’re safe and warm here on your bed
With a fluffy pillow to lay your head

Pleasant dreams my little man
As your eyes fill with sand
Your daddy will stay here through-out the night
Off to sleep, no longer fight

Good night Son,
I love you!

what a precious write for a precious son. You seem to be the sort of dad that I would like to have children for.

This took me back to those precious times when my children were little and I slept on the floor next to their beds and held their hands whenever they were sick. Never thought I'd miss those days, but reading this, I do. Thanks for sharing something so real.

Such a beautiful write.
I miss looking at my daughter sleeping and holding her tight. She is grown up now still have hugs and cuddles but when they are small it is so wonderful.

Love Sweetangelukxxxx
