This takes off from a lullaby but I do not know who wrote it and I am not sure who I heard perform it, but I think it was Barbra Streisand, so it must be recorded somewhere, and I don't know the title either.  Dedicated to Eustathias and our undefined refining relationship of unknowing.

Sometimes, not often enough, I connect with all the good Ones who grow so much in me And when we re-member these times lost in right now space, we gather no grand finale harvest But remain so very grateful for whom We have been and where We have gone and when We might romp once again before this time's curious end. Bending just, and unjustly, around life's next grateful fateful corner, Zero summing all these great Ones who grow so much in graceful We.
