The Angel's Lullaby

I'll show you a world

Let me take you away.

Where hopes don't wither into dust. 

your heart is light as day.  

 

For when the dark comes,

There is nothing to dread.

Just set your mind to rest

On a dandelion bed. 

---------------------------

And the angels whisper 

into your ear;

My dearest child, 

Come settle here. 

 

The air is warm

And the night is kind.

Come rest, weary child,

And free your mind. 

---------------------------

Your dreams are candy-coated sweet,

Tomorrow they'll come true.

The radiant stars are cast upon

A velvet sky that's navy blue.

 

The birds that fly 

Have the moon on their wings.

And the lightning bugs dance

While the crickets sing.  

---------------------------

And the angels whisper  into your ear;

My dearest child, 

Come settle here. 

 

The air is warm

And the night is kind.

Come rest, weary child,

And free your mind.

---------------------------

And here is the place

Where you'll drift off to sleep.

Plunge into the night

For it's warm and it's deep.

And no matter what distance,

How many miles apart.

 

I'll love you forever.

With all of my heart.

This was very soothing and healing, I felt it like a balm of kindred ease, and it did me good to read this. It's tasteful and precious.

@Erin; yes I do have a melody kind of figured out for at least the refrain. And thank you.

[Aeternal Oceanfire]

Lullaby, suo gan. I just love these poems.

Lovely. =]] Rhythm is terrific. Do you have a melody in mind for this? It would be a beautiful song I'm sure.

The characteristic that always stands out to me most in your writing is your use of senses -- touch, sight, smell, taste, and sound are consistently present. It strengthens your messages by a boatload. Keep it up!! I love it!!
