Notes About The Poem

Good Night

From the groves of eucalyptus,
Over the hills of Alpine trees,
I bring for you,
The smell of roses.
With the shimmer of dew,
A charming, enchanting dream.

Sweet, shut your eyes,
Nightingales singing on boughs,
Fireflies hovering around the lamp post,
For you I bring sleepy teddy bear,
A charming, enchanting dream.

Beloved eyes, goodnight, 
In the gentle moon's embrace, 
With twinkling stars as your companions, 
I tenderly lay my touch upon you, 
A gentle stroke of affection, 
A charming, enchanting dream.

Jay I am not sure if this is classed as a nursery rhyme or a lullaby, but I am betting Eve Roper would love to have it her book. Its is so very beautiful..I think it should be framed as a gift for any new born baby girl. It is absoltely gorgeous. A Fave
