Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Adult Lullaby

In my arms you can forget your troubles
Close your eyes and leave them all behind
I’ll sway you tenderly to loving rhythms

I’ll comfort you to sweet musical perfumes
And protect you with all the serenity
Of a thousand starry midnights

Under feathery wispy lakeshore willows
That waver in cool late summer breezes
Close your eyes and leave all worries behind
