Good Night Blessings
"The sky prepares the sun for night
Where drifting clouds are slowly steeping
In tepid pools of waning light”
A sense of calm is swiftly creeping
Stars gleam outside the window
The baby’s in her bed
Fireflies dance upon the willow
Nightly prayers are being said
The hens are in the hen house
The donkeys in the barn
Mama’s in the rocking chair
Knitting socks of yarn
Father comes in from the field
With a smile on his face
This year’s crop has reached its yield
Only by God’s Grace
