The Happy Dog's Bedtime Prayer

Now I lay me down  to sleep,
The  king-size bed is soft and deep.
I sleep right in  the center groove
My  human being can hardly move!

I've trapped  her legs,
she's  tucked in tight,
And  here is where I pass the night.
No one disturbs  me or dares  intrude
Till morning  comes and I want food!

I sneak up slowly and it begins
My nibbles on my  human's chin.
She wakes  up slowly and smiles and shouts,
"You darling  beast! Just cut it out!"
But morning's  here and it's time to play
I always seem to  get my way.

So  thank you, Lord, for giving me
This human person  that I see
The one who  hugs and holds me tight
and shares her  bed with me at night!
