~When Your Weary~


Sleep fails and you fear the alarm bell
rise and shine leaves you with one open eye
the counted sheep left you high and dry
when they jumped the fence and said goodbye


Dragging sleepy feet on cold wooden floors
I remember my blessings still snug in their beds
with visions of Santa dancing in their heads
riding across starlit nights in a golden sled
with shimmering silver stars leading the way

Visions like this brings them jumping with glee
with warm snuggle hugs and kisses on my cheek
it's then I remember, the gift given me
