When my eyelids fall so heavy
and my thoughts are all of You,
I know I’ll soon be sleeping
until the morning’s dew.
The moonlight falls so quietly
upon my windowpane
and the stars begin to twinkle
as the angels say Your name.
I try so hard to stay awake,
so I can really pray,
but You calm my restless spirit so
I have no words to say.
Just know that I do love You
and pray within my dreams,
that I’ll see You in the morning
when the morning dewdrops gleam.

I got a couple of days behind. I think the prompts stymied me for a few days. I don’t know why. Sometimes, that is just the way it goes. Anyway, I apologize for getting behind and then slamming you with three poems in one day!
