A soft blanket of sleep lies over the ***** of our weary enterprise As the plants sung me the sweetest sounding lullabies tonight Serenades to a universe remote, the brightness of her starry skies So tender, that one might think it shameful to look upon the dawning of the light
Dream now ; dream of shores, of seas and raging storms There embark on ships and live through tales of forlorn lands And ere you wake again, at the ticklish touch of time and form, Tenderly take up these dreams and bury them in the ***** of the sand
And when my last farewells are laid to rest When monumental time freazes tears into mere statues of grief Well then, let there be peace in being but an ever-faithful guest That's seen where dreams lay down their heads and fade into belief
