She Can't-Wait to Say Her Prayers
by Thomas K. HuntShe can’t wait to say her prayers
Loves the word amen
Every night before she goes to sleep
We sit and do it again
An innocent true believer
I’ll never shake her faith
My heart is filled with warmth
To know she's in Gods grace
She knows well of his being
Reminds me, he’s everywhere
“Poppy, God is watching you”
“You know, he sees you there”
She’s literally my little angel
She has found my missing light
She can’t wait to say her prayers
Before bedtime every night

Author's Note: I'm teaching my Granddaughter Alexia Angel, and yes that's her real name, to say her prayers at night...All I can say is that I'm smiling right now.
