[for Gautham kandula's challenge]*

Sweet child, new born baby!

Feel this love I wrap you in!
All your life long
you'll look for it,
this filled silence
where you are, entirely.

Feel the day light,
take a first breath of the earthly scent!
Through your life,
you'll forget you're alive
and be fed on dreams of immortality.

Listen to my lullaby,
learn this tale of love and loss!
You'll be the hero in my story
as you'll live up to yourself,
both of us accomplishing
our mortal destiny.

Hush, hush, sweet child...
Do cry, when you have to.
I tell you:
you'll also know laugh!
Prompt: birthday; this text was firstly inspired by the magic gifts on Perrault's 'Sleeping Beauty'...!
