Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem

before I sleep...(Poem)

>

> Mommy, don't you cry now

> and Daddy don't you weep.

> I want to whisper something

> before I go to sleep.

>

> I know that when I came here

> I looked perfect in every way

> and you were so proud Daddy

> when you held me on that day.

>

> And Mommy when you kissed me

> and wrapped me up so tight,

> I knew that I belonged here,

> and everything was right

>

> But then, when I stopped talking

> and began to slip away

> I saw your worried faces . .

> as you knelt by me to pray.

>

> And Daddy, I always notice

> how you wipe away a tear,

> when you watch the other children

> as they run and laugh and cheer.

>

> I may not be able to tell you

> how much I love you so,

> or even show you how I feel

> and what I really know.

>

> But when you hold me Mommy

> at night when all is still

> I feel the love you have for me,

> and I know that all is well.

>

> And Daddy when you take me

> to the park to run and play

> I know that you still love me

> though the word's I cannot say.

>

> So Daddy dont you cry now

> and Mommy don't you weep,

> I want to tell you something

> before I go to sleep.

>

> I may be sort of different,

> and you may not understand.

> I know that I am not that little child

> that you and Daddy planned.

>

> But I love you both so very much

> and I know you love me too,

> And if I could only speak my heart

> You would feel my love for you.

>

> I know the future is unknown

> and you will always have to be,

> the one's who love and listen

> and take good care of me.

>

> I know that you are frightened

> and you shed so many tears,

> and if I could I'd wipe them dry

> and take away your fears.

>

> So Mommy don't you cry now

> and Daddy please don't weep

> I want to say. . . . . I love you both,

> before I go to sleep.
