Linda Alice Fowler Poet Rhyme

Daddy By Your Bed

Sweet dreams my little one,
place your head on my knee.
	I will sing of someone
	who dreams a dream for thee.

Let heavy eyelids close
and drift on happy sleep,
	in gentle soft repose
	in Daddy’s arms to keep.

Pretend that fragrant rose
buds cover you to warm,
	and Daddy’s arms full close
	to keep you from all harm.

So sweet dreams little one
and fret not your sweet head.
	You’re safe when day is done
	with Daddy by your bed.
