Sleep Sweet Baby

Sleep sweet baby,
close your eyes,
mother is here,
by your side.
Dream those dreams,
of safeness, and love,
my arms wrapped tightly,
in slumbers hug.
As the moon gives way,
to another bright day,
know sweet baby,
I will love you, always.

Christy, Sounds like a sweet lullaby. I miss those hugs from my mother, tomorrow she will have been gone four years. If your's is still living, spend as much time with her as you possibly can. Thank you so much for your comments on my poems Christy. God's richest blessings...Janice
