Sunset Lullaby

How dreamy are the sunset rays whose colors blend, then fade away they calm the skies at close of day. How marvelous to hear the leaves that rustle faintly in the breeze with windswept notes that float and tease. How heavenly to rock away inside a boat that sways and strays along a stream beside the bay. How comforting it is to know that angels watch me as I go their wings surround me as I sleep as night descends to safely keep. How peaceful as I go along while curtains in the sky are drawn and hear those distant lullabies that whisper sweetly in my mind. Written on 3/7/2018

Oh, so enrapturing and cathartic - I had to read this thrice! Wonderful flow and phrasing, superb metaphor and imagery, and while this would indeed be a wonderful lullaby, (I am a songwriter/producer), it also feels very much like a prayer to me, and a delightful way to finish the day. Gorgeous - must fav this as well, Laura! :-) <3
