Goodnight God - goodcatholicboy - 07-22-2009
My eighty three year old aunt, my only surviving relative, sent me this. She said that she came across it while cleaning out her attic.
She told me that I wrote it for my fourth grade religion class; forty -five years ago. I was nine years old. I had forgotten it, both the poem and it's God.
I read it now and I long for the time when I could talk to God as I do in this poem/prayer.
I want it back; this way of talking to God; before I was angry with Him; before I knew so much about Him.
Goodnight God.
I hope you are having
a good time being the world.
I like the world very much
I'm glad you made the plants
and trees survive all the storms
and lightning and thunder- the
rain and dark clouds that cover up the sun.
When summer is nearly over
the leaves begin to fall.
I love You that You have a good time
being the world.
I like how You feel around
everyone in the world.
God, I am very happy that
I live in You.
Your arms hug us around the world.
I like You and your friends.
Every time I open my eyes
I see the gleaming sun.
I like the animals - the deer and the dolphins
and us creatures of the world,
the mammals.
I love Sissy, Cindy, Mike and Joseph.
I love my dear friends.
Thank you for having a good time
being the world.
Good night God.
