This is a lovely Child’s Bedtime Song i want to share with you.

If I had two wishes, I know what they would be

I’d wish for roots to cling to and wings to set me free;

Roots of inner value, like rings within a tree

and wings of independance to seek my destiny.

Roots to hold forever to keep me safe and strong,

To let me know you love me, when I’ve done something wrong;

To show me by example and help me learn to choose,

To take those actions everyday to win instead of lose.

Just be there when I need yo, to tell me it’s all right,

To test my fear of falling when I test my wings in flight;

Don’t make my life too easy, it’s better if I try,

And fail and get back up myself, so I can learn to fly.

If I had two wishes and they were all I had,

And they could just be granted, by my mom and dad;

I woudn’t ask for money or any store bought things,

The greatest gifts I’d ask for are simply roots and wings.
