Singing You To Sleep

Close your gentle eyes to soft-sung lullabies She'll hush you to sleep kissing your blues away She'll make you dream so sweet. Dreams of silver stardust where darkness won't exist Where solitude is nothing but one deceiving myth. In dreams your one beloved not only in your heart but sitting there beside you where blissful thoughts impart Your head upon her lap Her eyes lost in your smile In a secluded cottage on a tropical isle. Close your gentle eyes to soft-sung lullabies She'll hush you to sleep kissing your blues away She'll make you dream so sweet Dreams of being captured in another time where wind-swept petals fall like bacchus of flowing wine Dreams of being taken to a better place where your empty hands will cup her smooth porcelain face. Close your gentle eyes to soft-sung lullabies She'll hush you to sleep kissing your blues away She'll make you dream so sweet.<>

This was incredibly beautiful and soothing my sweet friend. "Close your gentle eyes to soft-sung lullabies" It doesn't get any prettier than that. I think I will read this just prior to going to bed this evening, I know for sure it will help me sleep.
