A Kids Candle Light Prayer

*A Kids Candle Light Prayer*
By: Orlando M. Hundley

You are born every minute of ev’ry hour
Of each and every day
You flicker and dance like a golden flower
You help me kneel down to pray
You are my comfort my warmth and
Often my guiding light
You are there to tuck me in and say to me goodnight
This morning I turn to look over for you
But you were out of sight
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
How could you have let me miss the bus?
I’ll tell my teacher before I cry
My candlelight blew out and
I don’t know why
I awake this morning nothing was there
Not even the wax, or its hair.
