Poem For The Night Poem by david lessard

The day has ended slowly
and night wraps you in her shawl
I hope you offered prayers to God,
and asked forgiveness for us all.

Let sleep now take your thoughts,
and may they peaceful be;
let your dreams be happy ones,
and bad thoughts from you flee.

Let nothing disturb your sleep,
Do not fret about the 'morrow;
Give up to God above,
Your burdens He can borrow.

Sleep now and don't be troubled,
Day is done and night is here;
With God on your conscience,
You've nothing left to fear.

This poem is for the night,
To put your mind at rest;
To satisfy your soul,
So you can be your best.

A lullaby of sweet serenade,
A song of love to share;
From one poet to another,
To show you that we care.
