This is a poem I just wrote for my kids. It may not be the final draft, but it's close.
The whole world hush to lull you to sleep
The sun rise slowly to wake you in peace
The fruit grow fat to feed you in plenty
Your friends and family and laughter be many
Your love be strong and your patience be stronger
Your bad days be short and your good days be longer
Tho your path be not easy may it always be clear
Tho you travel alone may God keep you from fear
In all projects and plans may you never feel worry
Enjoy life as it comes, never rush or hurry
A thirst for knowledge and a desire to grow
An eye of observance wherever you go
Satisfaction in work, whatever it be
Patience for provision if you're ever in need
Tho you be in doubt may your faith never waiver
May you always be sure of your one tru Savior
Near or far, a strong family connection
In a loved ones arms you'll find love and protection
Guidance on espousal sent from above
If you marry, I pray there'll be respect, friendship, and love
In my life whatever else I make or do
My greatest accomplishment will always be you
Dear Ones, if someday you have children too
I pray they will be as lovely as you
