CUSPATE LULLABY O serenade of crescent mOOn - a cuspate lullaby. lOvely lyrics, lulling, gently rOcking and rOlling, dOwn dreamy dales, up seesaw hills, under peekabOO stardust, and milky beams Of mystical mOOnshine - with la de da and fiddle-de-de, humming from sOft lips that brush a newbOrn’s cheek. a yOung mother, happily surrendering to sandman lids. the siren’s call, midway through the night, relaxing at the rise and fall, Of infant’s chest, brimming with baby’s breath. the crescent mOOn, smiles, miles and miles away. 9/11/2017
