Lullaby

The solemn tune of slumber, lays heavily on the keys, as life's adventures wander, passed in a soundless breeze. As the sleeper mumbles, Laying there with ease, the mother watching humbles, all daily angst appeased. The dreamers breath fumbles, slowly drifting within, a lilted sound crumbles, the space a tempered din. On a shift she stumbles, staring wide, chagrined, a sniff, a cry, she grumbles, then produces an incredible grin. 02/11/2018 Tell Me A Story 2 Poetry Contest 1st photo Sponsored by: Brenda Chiri

Often when seeing your child happily asleep all of the problems of the day disappear. Nicely done my friend.
