Dreamy Skies

Again I'll close my sleepy eyes Beneath the deep and dreamy skies Again the moon, and twinkling stars Mercury Venus, Earth and Mars Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, swoon The Milky Way, as does Neptune And good ole' Pluto, that little guy... Dance through space, the inky sky And as I drift in slumber's rest To rise at dawn upon life's quest I'll rest in He Who made those skies Lulled by The Father's lullabies

A superb poem, simple and sweet ! Truly awesome. I wish to be that lucky child once again to be put to sleep by the great Father's lullaby!

Thank you Daniel, and thank you for reaching out. I'm back after my little hiatus during my contest and busy, busy family time!

Thank you Gershon :) I don't know if I'm that talented. I will ask my daughter if she may like to try, you bless my heart with your kind words :) My family used to love to come up with songs sung together, now many reside on the eternal side of this life, but I will ask my daughter to. Fun idea :)

Ahh!! Reads like a good lullaby for a contest. I enjoyed reading this one today. It has good flow, rhythm, and rhyme plus shows your faith. Plus at first I thought you were going to talk about how those planets lined up on the horizon in the west right at sunset this week. It won't happen again until 2040. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my p age. Sara

Your words are so kind and uplifting to me Sara :) I have been off of here for quite sometime and just on to check on the contest, and it is so nice to be back here to read your sweet note to me. I hope you are well, I will be over to read some of your poems soon!
