For my sweet little granddaughter, Abigail What dances through your mind sweet little girl To cause that precious smile of delight Has God sent little angels to unfurl The mysteries of heaven through the night? What secrets would you tell if you could share With us that charming land within your head Do fairies twirl about your teddy bear And sprinkle star-dust magic on your bed? Do tiny pups and kitties roll around In endless play to cause hilarity Within your dreamland world could there be found A doting soul who looks a bit like me? May only good befall you without fail Awake, asleep, forever, Abigail. Snowglobe courtesy of http://www.babys-breath.com/twinkles.html |

My gosh - You ask a question - "What do you think they dream of?" is what you said, wasn't it? Then you create a heavenly piece to answer your own questions... |

Oh Denise! This is just adorable, and oh so sweet! I think they dream about fairies and unicorns, and angels, and carousels and...gee, wouldn't it be wonderful to sleep and dream like a baby again? ~Time has cast a spell on you, |
