Bedtime Stories Moonlight flooded the small bedroom And upon the bed a teddy bear lay As patiently he waited her return He knew what she would have to say Each night they snuggled in her bed As she told him stories of a past One filled with hurt and sadness And how her life was happy at last He never tired of hearing her words As he quietly held a little book Listening as she told of her life And the many turns in which it took Blue eyes filled with tears of pain Would tell of what she had seen Of the years of abuse and neglect From her parents that were so mean Hugging and squeezing him so tightly She told of the many drugs and beer And how one day it came to an end When her neighbor seen it so clear Placing her with a family that cared She now was happy and could smile Knowing her hurtful past was over For an adoption of her they'd file The stories she told were the truth And the teddy bear always did cry Laying awake as she quietly slept Hugging him with a peaceful sigh Footsteps were heard in a hallway And a young tiny girl did giggle As a teddy bear waited patiently For a story, his hug, and a tickle Janie Moser © 10/07/06     Angels Watching Over Me Margi Harrell ~Copyright disclaimer~ All songs through out my website are for my evaluation(s) and/or music listening and educational purposes only.
