Snuggling in

  Snuggling in with my 'Mushie'*
    singing bed-time lullabies
  Watching the smile on his face
    eyes close, smile spreads wide

  Soft, I go now, to let you grow
    and while at first it seemed slow
  Now you're a soldier in the IDF**
    ~ though sweet lullabies never left



  ________________________________ 
  *'Mushie' was the family nickname for 
    my youngest son, Doniel Yosef Wolf.
  **'IDF' = Israel Defense Forces
