    "Dear Lord"

    Every single evening
    As I'm lying here in bed
    This tiny little prayer
    Keeps running through my head.

    God bless my mom and dad
    And other family,
    Keep them warm and safe from harm
    For they're so close to me

    And God, there is one more thing
    I wish that you could do.
    Hope you don't mind me asking,
    Bless my computer too.

    Now I know that its not normal
    To bless a mother board,
    But listen just a second
    While I explain to you 'My Lord'.

    You see, that little metal box
    Holds more than odds and ends
    Inside those small compartments
    Rest so many of my FRIENDS.

    I know so much about them
    The kindness that they give
    And this little scrap of metal
    Takes me into where they live.

    By faith is how I know them
    Much the same as you
    We share in what life brings us
    And from that our friendship grew

    Please, take an extra minute
    From your duties up above
    To bless those in my address book
    That's filled with so much love!

    Wherever else this prayer may reach
    To each and every friend,
    Bless each email inbox
    And the person who hits 'SEND'.

    When you update your heavenly list
    On your own CD-ROM
    Remember each who've said this prayer
    Sent up to God.com

    Amen

    Mouthy can not take credit for this poem, It was from my Aunt Mary she sent it to me yesterday and I thought I would share it with all. But I am a published poet and my work is in an Anthology.
