Inspired by Alina

A cry in the night.
Heavy eyes
Sleep-laden fog.
Maybe it will stop.
Please not again.
Such a warm bed
Such good sleep.
Cold floor
Stumbling
Little arms outstretched.

A prayer in the dark.
A smile
Delight in My child.
Why didn’t you call sooner?
You know I never sleep
You never bother Me.
Cast your cares on Me
I care for you.
I’m always waiting,
My arms outstretched.
