Little boy kneels at the foot of the bed, droops on his little hands; little, gold head.
Shhhhhh. Whisper. Who dares?
Christopher Robin is saying his prayers.
"God bless mommy. I know that's right,
and wasn't it fun in the bath tonight!
The cold's so cold and the hot's so hot.
God bless daddy. I quite forgot.
If I open my eyes just a little bit more
I can see nanny's dressing gown on the door.
It's a beautiful blue (but it hasn't got a hood).
Mine has a hood, and I lie in bed, and I pull the hood
right over my head.
And I shut my eyes, and I crawl up small, and nobody
knows that I'm there at all.
Thank you, God, for a lovely day.
And what was the other I wanted to say?
I said bless daddy, so what could it be?
NOW I remember! God bless me!
