Dream's Lullaby

In the time of yesteryear,

Love was made clear,

And happiness fulfilling�"

                               

If in morrow’s sight

Love become blight,

And happiness confounding,

May you find life instilling�"

 

Even when dreams are betraying.

And the future leaking�"

When love’s denying

And the present inflicting,

The world is never changing�"

 

In times of sorrow,

Mind not tomorrow,

But lay down your head,

And maintain your stead.

 

Forms may contort,

And emotions distort;

But what is True�" will remain True.

 

So lay down; close your eyes;

And listen to a dream’s lullaby.
