Swing me to a lullaby
so  soft and soothing i wont wonder why
the world stings so much
and why everyone is in a rush

so swing me to  a lullaby
to cold and dark to work out why
i find myself in  a rush
i wonder when this will become too much

Swing me to a lullaby
so old and cold, and ive found out why
i was in  a rush
to end this life, its far to much

Sleepless Jul 2015

From Day To Night (A Lullaby)

Close your eyes, sweet innocent child
Its time for the night to play
Let the dark take over now
For tomorrow's another day

The bear has laid his head to rest
The owl's day has begun
Raccoons and bats come out to play
But for you, the day is done

The wolf has come to sing to the moon
Crickets will hum lullabies
The stars will come to dance in the black
With the darkening sky

So rest your head, sweet innocent child
Your time has come to an end
The sun has set to make way for night
Its time to sleep once again

A lullaby I wrote for a children's book is will be illustrating in the near future.

the river is wide

~~~<¤>~~~

the river is wide, child
the river runs deep
don't you fret, no
don't you weep

the river is wide, child
the river is wide
but your promise 's
on the other side

~~~

don't be afraid
the current 's slow
and you can meander
with the flow

take your time
there is no rush
hear the water
hear the hush

~ chorus ~

see the world, child
from your boat
watch the others
as they float

see the redness
of the waves
dip your hand
the water saves

~ chorus ~

smell the richness
in your craft
be it a yacht
or be it a raft

the water is sweet, yes
the water is free
it stretches far
as you can see

~~~

the river is wide, child
the river runs deep
pray the Lord
your soul to keep

the river is wide, child
the river is wide
but everyone goes
to the other side

lullaby

The voices of thoughts, ideas ringing before that last eye blink..the rhythm that sails worries away puts doubts at bay.. the perfect lullaby baby, rock your fears away baby, fly away

Night-night

Your voice is my lullaby

Your voice is my lullaby
Your words make me weak
That tender voice of your caresses my ear, though it's on the radio,
your voice lingers on my atmosphere
as if you were really here.
love and tenderness in your voice seems to supply
your vocals for are my lullaby.

Acid rain.

Dance as the Sun slips away,
and as the night drain by,
we slowly decay,
into a sweet, sweet lullaby.

inspired by our economy

Lullaby for the little one

Sunlight, little Sunlight,
let your dreams be bright tonight.
Sunlight, charming Sunlight
I'll carry you safely all through the night~

Sunlight, baby Sunlight,
I will protect you as you sleep.
Sunlight, darling Sunlight,
This is a promise I will keep~

Undying love

In the inner labyrinths
when I walk alone
a gazing benevolent eye, I see,
the helix nebula of my origin
watching me, intently
beloved star, once a dazzling sun,
you refuse to go quietly
in to the night's ferocity
mother dear, in your core
undying love still burns
singing my favorite old lullaby.

Helix Nebula,
in the shape of a giant eye,
is a dying star bigger in death than in life;
it's cosmic tantrum is spectacular....
Remains of a star it is, more like our sun..reminds me weakening connection of umbilical chord..as time ticks away
(To my MOM)

Little Bird (A Lullaby)

Broken thing, little bird
Still your wings and heed my word
There's always time to fly again
So take a rest my weary friend.

Feel the wind rush through the leaves
Sway gently on the summer breeze
Slow your breath and end your song
My little bird, the day is long.

Oh, baby bird, my little crow
I love you more than you could know
Sleep sweetly, softly, precious one
The night has come, the day is done.
