For the Sleepy Little One

For the Sleepy Little One... And he breathes a steady tempo In the arch of my elbow So I keep the arch narrow Lest he moves in random fits of woe Let not the world harrass this peace Be completely at ease Fret not and rest in belief You're safe, this aching arm shall not release So this is all the little one should know Receive all that the Lord bestow Blessed with good faith and peace Dwell safe in the arch of love he sleeps

The code stunned me - it has happened once before when the code matched the content of the poem in some way. I am a January birthday too but my christian name is Jan :-) Hugs Jan xx
