John's original poems
<< | poems index | clock poem | March 2008 >>Thank You Lord(for grandfather,longcase,tallcase clocks) (February 2008)These are the words to a song I wrote about my children many years ago.
Came home late one evening,children both in bed,
would I go and see them there were stories to be read.
I walked back down the hallway,and halfway up the stairs,
it was then I heard the gentle voice of my little girl in prayer.
"Thank you for my mummy,and thank you for my dad.
Thank you for my little dog,he makes me feel so glad.
Thank you for the sunshine,and thank you for the rain.
Thank you for my brother,though sometimes he's a pain.
Thank you for my grandma,and for my granddad too.
Thank you for the fields of green,and for the sky so blue.
thank you,Lord for making us a happy family,
and now there is just one more thing.
thank you lord for ME!!"
As I stood there listening a tear came to my eye,
for simple things like that,can make a grown man cry.
If I live to be a hundred,nothing ever will compare,
to that day whenI first heard my little girl in prayer.
Repeat verse.
Grandfather Clocks Am I
