Sing Me a Lullaby

Sing me a soft lullaby to hush away my fears Pull your arms around me Wipe away my salty tears Sing to me of muddy shoes And someone asking for a dime Tell me who rips your heart out And handles it with care Sing to me of angels and a whisper of a prayer sing to me a lullaby That ill sing my unborn child Hold me tight and brush my hair Away to see my smile Sing me into slumber Where happiness exists Sing me a soft lullaby And ill finally get some rest

Your 'lullaby' is like pristine spirit Jay - perfect moments coming forth with the perfect relationship - I'll keep it close in my special collection - 'Youth built upon wisdom and clensed with sage...' - You mean alot to me - thank you for the gift at a time when I needed it - I feel so sorry for people who refuse to appreciate the power of poetry - J.A.B. %
