My Precious Gift

The moon has risen

And my little one you should be asleep

Put your book away

Words can wait another day

Now close your eyes

And count to 10

Remember how warm a hug feels

Think of your favorite toy

Sounds of your little breath fill the air

Rest now my child

Listen to this sweet lullaby

And when you wake

The sun will rise

And greet you with a warm smile

You will rub your little eyes

And start the day again

And you will play

All day long

With a bounce in your step

Remember to clean your toys up

Before you take a nap

And as you wake

This time I will take

That curly head of yours and give you a kiss

My sweet little child

My precious gift
