Terry Flood Poet Rhyme

Sleepyhead - Nursery Rhyme

A Lullaby


Go to bed, sleepyhead
Snuggle with sleepy ted
And sleep sleepyhead
In your safe warm bed

Close your eyes, don’t peek
Count the bounding sheep
Take a graceful leap
Into restful sleep

And then when you awake
To a brand new day
We will take your hand
And we’ll guide your way

Take a graceful leap
Into restful sleep
And sleep sleepyhead
In your warm cozy bed
