Godspeed
Dragon tales and the "water is wide" Pirate's sail and lost boys fly
Fish bite moonbeams every night
And I love you
Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams
The rocket racer's all tuckered out
Superman's in pajamas on the couch
Goodnight moon, we'll find the mouse
And I love you
Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels' wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams
God bless mommy and match box cars
God bless dad and thanks for the stars
God hears "amen" wherever we are
And I love you
Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Sweet dreams
~ lyrics by Radney M. Foster, listen
That's our little man up there; our nephew. He's 21 now, but our love still flies to him each night on angels' wings.

Though my "little man" is a grown up lady, I could still picture her as I read this poem. Thank you!
Beautiful! And one I want to remember!
wow, what a simple poem so full of emotion that it brings tears to my eyes for my little men now grown up.....I can already imagine the scrapbook page I will use it for, thanks for sharing (and the little man is adorable)
So easily remember this although my son will soon turn 45.
Beautiful song and lyrics! Makes me think of my little grandson.
All those special little guys in our lives and for that matter too, the girls, we send on angel wings our love and dreams for each of them. We embrace them in our hearts. Lovely!
Oh, I love this Relyn . . . I'll have to send it to my nephew! xoxo
my heart wells up swollen
with love for my sons
as I read along
....godspeed indeed,
little men,
all of them, really,
everywhere.

That is fantastic, thank you Relyn. Here in Scotland, boys are often affectionately called "wee man".
Very movingly written - and thank-you.
So sweet! Love the photo; I remember Olan Mills from childhood!
Oh, what a beautiful poem this is, Relyn. My little man is all grown up now, but he will always be my "little man."
What a precious photograph this is.
xo.

and adorable photo!

This is such a sweet poem, Relyn, and such a precious photo.
