Edward Ebbs Poet Sonnet

Angels Lullaby

Hush little baby it's time to sleep
Angels watching over you so don't you peep

Listen little dreamer hear this song
Angels watching over you so nothing's wrong

Sleep little baby you had your play
Angels watching over you it's time to pray

Now it's time to sleep it's all right
Angels watching over you to keep you tight

Soft is your bed now rest your head
Angels watching over you are by your bed

Now close your eyes and go to sleep
Angels watching over you your soul to keep

Sleep little baby you're about to gleam
Angels watching over you to safely dream

Edward J Ebbs - 10/23/11


Written for a Contest, Lullabies...
Meant to be sung as a Lullaby to a child...
