Hello Nolan. Nice poem. Enjoyable. A simple overview with passionate meanings. Cheers. Richard LP

It’s for kids Richard! Not for dissection and analysis please. Teach it to your grandchildren they will understand it! &&

What is greater than God, more wicked than the devil, and more beautiful than a child’s prayer?

Let it grow let it blossom let it flow

"I have no name;
I am but two days old."
What shall I call thee?
"I happy am,
Joy is my name."
Sweet joy befall thee!

Pretty joy!
Sweet joy, but two days old.
Sweet Joy I call thee:
Thou dost smile,
I sing the while;
Sweet joy befall thee!

Songs of Innocence

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.

Mysterious star!
Thou wert my dream
All a long summer night-
Be now my theme!
By this clear stream,
Of thee will I write;
Meantime from afar
Bathe me in light!

&
Poe

“I see the moon,
And the moon sees me;
God bless the moon,
And God bless me.

Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon a little child;
Pity my simplicity,
Suffer me to come to thee.

An Old Cradle Song

Sleep, my babe, lie still and slumber
All through the night
Guardian angels God will lend thee
All through the night
Soft and drowsy hours are creeping
Hill and vale in slumber sleeping
Mother dear her watch is keeping
All through the night

God is here, you'll not be lonely
All through the night
'Tis not I who guards thee only
All through the night
Night's dark shades will soon be over
Still my watchful care shall hover
God with me His watch is keeping
All through the night
