Sweet Dreams Lullaby

sweet gentle dreams ~ come to my little baby’s eyes….
        my baby needs to rest after a long day of fun!

                                        as soft ~ as petals of jasmine are her cheeks,
                                 ravishing ruby-colours ~  of rose are her lips. 

  her eyes got ~ colour blue from the azure sky,
       she got her pretty ~ smile from the butterfly!

                                     tweeting birds gave her all the ~ soothing music
                     the lovely ~ graceful melody charms when she speaks.

  sleep, come, ~ nest ~ gently on my little angel's eyes.
         my baby needs rest after a long day of fun!
