Soothe

Sapphire silk scarves Soft white cotton sheets The best piece of chocolate you ever did eat The sweetest scent of Lavender, or Two weeks at the beach A nap with your Teddy Kissed by salty sea air Wind blowing wildly, tossing lion mane hair Curled up with a quilt On a wet, Winter-spun day Caught up in a dream that carries you Far away A violin trilling serenades you to sleep Treble-tousled lullabies Take you to Fluffy, frothy skies Clouds dancing in the sun that you wish You could keep Spending hours on end with Somebody you Love Celebrating Un-birthdays on account Of just because Stars cling to the night like the blush That hugs your cheeks The guitar you strum softly is the sole Companion that you need His meek friend the mandolin Puts the beat into Your blood and the lyric in your Name So rub your eyes, weary souls Come and shed all of Your tears Drop every heartache in the ocean And erase all of your Fears This place was built to calm you Entirely to soothe To cradle you in the arms of a world That's really not so huge
