This morning when I said goodbye,
In your sleep your fingers grasped mine.
Already I missed your smiles,
Holding you tight and comforting your cries.
The twinkle in your eyes was a shining light,
The peal of your laughter rang loud with delight.
Softly I bent down to touch your face,
And whispered lovely things to be caught in dreams.
May sweet slumbers rain on you each night,
And there be joy to fill you heart always.
Sleep tight, my dear, and grow strong each day.
I wait ‘till once more you’re under my warm embrace.
