Close your eyes my little man so sleep is yours to find
Now feel the sun upon your face and the prickle of the grass below
Hear the trickling of a stream and the summer breeze blow
Ride your trike down open paths no cords to hold you down
And when you find a muddy hole no longer will I frown
With small dirty hands and smudges on your cheeks
I'll hold you close the smell of boy and grass and dirt so sweet
And in your dreams of far away I hope they take you home
To story times and hide and seek through the hallways you once roamed
Dream of make believe with giggles and pretend
Where there are smiles and happiness that has no end
Oh my little man, my little baby boy
I'd give the world, my health, my all to bring you all this joy
I never knew I'd love so much or yearn so deep as i do for you
To pray that when the morning sun finds the morning dew
That God above will look below on this little man
And make him whole and strong and well just like I know he can
To let him feel the sun again and the grass between his toes
To run wild and free to the places little boys will go
So as he flutters off to sleep and dreams his andventourous plan
please God bless my little man
