Gently Step The Softest Footprints

Gently step the softest footprints,
Into the night of children's dreams...
Each door opens, with a dreaming world...
like chapters caught inside their twinkling star.

Often memories felt kissed, by Mommy and Daddy,
Lovingly tucked in with snuggled hugs...
>From a long day's fun, daily prayers now said...
Employing all their thinking for future plans.

They quietly step upon stairs of love,
Their future of hopes for dreams to come true...
>From watching mountains that God builds high...
While sandman cluster dreams inside sleeping eyes.

Forever seems long, but nevermore troubled,
Knowing when love conquers, dreams step forward...
Hard work never kills, it's just being their guide...
Discipline loves their company fair.

So, gently step the stairways thoroughly,
Honest hearts feel their dreams come truly...
It's a must for children to respect their dues...
Now they will mature with Mommy and Daddy, lovingly accru'd.
