A child's prayer

Every evening

As I'm laying here in bed

This tiny little prayer

Keeps running through my head

God bless my mom and dad

And bless my little pup

And look out for my brother

When things aren't looking up

And God, there is one more thing

I wish that you could do

Hope you don't mind me asking

But please bless my computer too?

Now I know that's not normal

To bless a mother board

But just listen a second

While I explain to you 'My Lord'

You see, that little metal box

Holds more to me than odds & ends

Inside those small compartments

Rest a hundred of my 'BEST FRIENDS'

Some it's true I've never seen

And most I've never met

We've never exchanged hugs

Or shared a meal as yet . . .

I know for sure they like me

By the kindness that they give

And this little scrap of metal

Is how I travel to where they live

By faith is how I know them

Much the same as you

I share in what life brings them

From that our friendship grew

"PLEASE" take an extra minute

From you duties up above

To bless this scrap of metal

That's filled with so much love!
