Dreamland

     rose-covered blankets
        tuck infants in
     honey-tongued lyrics
        fall on soft skin

     eyelids so smooth
        shut ever-so-lightly
     angel wings soothe
        whisk away nightly

This is so tender and soothing. Like a lullaby in verse. I could almost feel the softness and calm while reading it. Beautifully done!
