Precious One

I'm going to sing a lullaby
 ~For you my precious one~
 May these words erase all your fears
 ~As night time has now come~
 
 
 These words are sang with starlit skies
 ~To you my precious one~
 So please now close your eyes
 ~Until a new day has begun~
 
 
 Dream of chasing butterflies
 ~My sweet and precious one~
 May you wake to clear bright skies
 ~With many happy days of fun~
 
 
 I sing to you this lullaby
 ~My loving precious one~
 I will always be near to dry each tear
 ~If they ever should happen to come~
 
 
 May I always wake to your beautiful smile
 ~My dear sweet precious one~
 My love for you will reach endless miles
 ~As your lifetime journeys have begun~

Dan, stopping by to say hi, and wish you an early Happy Easter, just in case I don't have time to stop by in the next few days. I'm also gonna comment this poem again. I recall the reason you wrote this for a girl who was gonna give birth :-( Now I find this poem extremely sad. Every word above is precious, My daughter and I never got a chance to express none of the above, she recently gave birth to her still born son. wish we had the joys above to enjoy. ~My loving precious one~*LINDA"

Dan; this is Awesomw. I just loved it. Have you tried to record it? Even if it is just for yourself. I hope you are doing good. You had not written anything in a while. Many blessings. Lucilla
