BACK TO THE BEGINNING

A Ballerina's Prayer

In my previous post I mentioned how, so many years ago, we loved hearing our children say their prayers at night.  After we had grandsons, I wrote a "Little Cowboy's Prayer", and as sometimes happens, this prayer/poem came to me for our little granddaughters who were budding ballerinas at the time. Both of the prayer/poems take me back to a precious time and remind me how quickly our children, and grandchildren, have grown up.

The Little Cowboy's Prayer

When our children were young we loved hearing them say their prayers at night and at that time they said the traditional one ... "Now I lay me down to sleep ...".  After we had grandchildren however, this poem/prayer came to me, out of the blue one day and I wrote it down. I've given it to friends over the years and it always takes me back to when my grandsons were just "little cowboys".
