The Mat
By Hanna Nunn
Put the mat by your bed and the mat will lead you if at night you kneel on it with faith and something to say you get to be with god. Listen to the small voice no bigger than a squeak and you will receive an answer when you talk with them. Don’t be greedy just ask of what you need on the mat and you will feel something warm and fuzzy on the mat, like when you cuddle with your mom or dad and a warm blanket because of the feeling on your mat. Just by saying things, good things, or for faith, hope, forgiveness or to not be afraid on your mat. The praying mat, it doesn’t matter what it looks like. It matters what’s in your heart and after that you go to bed feeling nice and safe because of the mat.
Hanna got this mat for Christmas from Grandma Carol.

Love it! My favorite part is "don't be greedy." Awesome.
Love this, love the picture. Good job Hanna.
Wow! That is the best thing I have read in a long time, Hanna! I think I will get me a mat too. I forget at night because there are too many other people in my bed trying to get warm! Maybe this would help remind me! xobon
Hanna, that is a great poem, so cool that you are that smart so young!! We all need such a mat and I'm working on the don't be greedy part, wise advise and I'll do my best to listen.
