My Soul To Keep

When I was a little girl, my paternal grandparents who raised me, taught me to say my prayers every night at bedtime. I always said: "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray to the Lord my soul to keep." As an adult, I still say my prayers at bedtime. I created this artwork of a silhouetted little boy saying his prayers at bedtime. I used the Paint program on my computer to produce my art.
