+*+*+ As my daughters do lie in sleep, I pray the angels will guard and keep, Them safe within their wings of light, Through all the hours of every night. And as they rise to greet each day, May angel love light their way. +*+*+ |

Just like a Mother... You left me thinking of each and every generation that has come before, and how it is one of the few things that remain the same. |

Awwww this reminds me of one I wrote not long ago. I can sure relate to this. Seeing their tiny little faces, and their movements while they sleep, and you would swear Angels are dancing above their head as they sleep!! Just beautiful. No wonder they inspire us! Lovely! ![]() SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Written for my children... "Now I lay me down to sleep I pray dear Lord, my soul to keep Gaurd me safely through the night, and wake me with the morning light. I am so small, and need your hand, as I learn to walk in this big land. Pick me up, and carry me through, and teach me what YOU would do. Forgive me when I'm not so nice, and when mama has to tell me twice. As I sleep, watch over me, and protect me from what I can't see." Your's was BEAUTIFUL, and it reminded me of this one that I wrote some time ago. Thank you for sharing! [This message has been edited by timothysangel1973 (08-25-2003 10:45 PM).] |
