Goodnight Prayer

For Christopher Robin

Sweet dreams to you my precious friend
as you launch out into the land of nod
stars and planets whisper to you 
beckoning you beyond this earthly sod
In the land of many winks you can explore
the crater of the moon is it really made of cheese?
the rings of Saturn you use as boomerangs across the galaxy
the stars welcome you and flirt by with their tails following them
oh come watch us twinkle so bright we light up the earth
we are such a lovely sight.
excited as a child you spend all your time swinging from star to star 
really in dreams it isn't so very far.
Goodnight.
