A little child,

scared and lost

Wanders through the night.

Many moonbeams light her path

Tears roll down the cherub face.

She sits on a stump to rest.

A tiny, white rabbit

With fur soft as silk,

hops To the toe of her shoe.

He blinks his big, brown eyes

As she holds him to her chest.

It calms her fears a bit.

An Angel of the night

Kneels gently to her side

He carries the sleepy child

Still clutching her new friend

To a nest of leaves to rest

By a babbling stream.

He holds her while she sleeps.

Lights searched, into the night

Looking for my Annie.

Where are you, my darling child?

Will I ever see you again?

We stumbled onto a path

Long forgotten, deep in the woods.

We followed the trail and our hearts,

Hoping all would be well.

Beside a stream, asleep in the leaves

Lay my little Annie.

She was smiling and holding

A little baby bunny.

The angels helped us find her that night.

And when she awoke she told

Of the man with silver wings

Who sang her Lullabies

And told her not to fear.

If she would wait, among the leaves

Her Mommy would soon be here.
