Lullaby


When sleep descends
upon your eyes,
and all around 
the dark conspires,
do not fear 
what lies in store,
when sleep comes
tapping at your door,
greet this friend 
with open arms,
and lose yourself
within its charms,
race down roads
that never bend,
climb up trees
that never end, 
then rest on clouds
that gently glide,
and drift above
the silent night,
and watch the world
go slowly past,
for here you are
in sleeps, soft, grasp.
