A Child’s Prayer
© By Kathy Armijo
My Dad is very sick
I went and saw him at the hospital
Wish he’d smile so I could see his dimple
He looks weird with lots of tubes everywhere
Mom says they will help him get better
I hope so
He looks really tired
He didn’t talk very much to me. Why?
It makes me sad to see him this way
Mom tells me to pray for him every day
Don’t know why, cause I know he will be okay
I hope he will come home today
I hear my Mommy weep
When she thinks I am asleep
We don’t have as much fun as we used to
Everything is different. How come?
God, I am only a kid
Hurry up and make my Dad better
So, he can come home to
Play with me and make my Mom smile, again
Thank you, God. Amen.
Oh, I almost forgot
Help Mommy find a new job.
