A poem for Bean written by her nana
Written by Jennie, Bean's nana for Bean's Mummy and Daddy
Dear Mummy,
Don't worry, I'm just sleeping,
And dreaming a wonderful dream,
Of picking daisies and chasing some fairies
And holding your hand, forever,
So it seems.
Dear Daddy,
Don't worry, I'm just sleeping,
And dreaming a fantastical dream,
Running through meadows and chasing a ball,
While you keep me safe,
So it seems
Please don't worry, my Mummy and Daddy,
As I flit over meadows and streams.
In dark moments, I'll be there watching,
As you smile, as you hold me,
In dreams.
xx
