My Prayer for You

by Odie

Before I close my eyes to sleep
And dreams into my head creep
I’ll say a prayer for you
And hope my blessings come true
That sweet dreams on your pillow fall
That faith will keep you standing tall
That happiness will surround you
That no day will find you blue
That love will find your heart
That it will fill your every part
That someday you will find someone
That you will say, “My search is done”
That you will say, “I am complete
That my heart someone like you did meet!”

They say that a good poem should be able to transport the reader to the setting of the poem. While reading your poem, I was actually imagining someone sleepy with face serene in prayer. Write more.

Very nice Odie. I'd be tempted to just tweak that last line.Maybe:
"That one like you, my heart could meet."
This is in keeping with the predominant 8 count through most of the poem, and also gives an air of expectancy and hope.
