A Dog’s Bedtime Prayer

Now I lay me down to sleep,

the king sized bed is soft and deep.

I sleep right in the center groove,

so my human beings can hardly move.

I’ve trapped their legs, they’re tucked in tight,

and here is where I’ll pass the night.

No one disturbs me or dares intrude,

till morning comes and “I want food!”

I sneak up slowly to begin,

and nibble on my humans chin.

For morning’s here, it’s time to play,

and I always seem to get my way.

So thank you universe for giving me,

the human person that I see.

The one who hugs and holds me tight,

and shares their bed with me at night!
