Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

I lay my baby down to sleep
                                   Imagining the Sandman digging deep

                           Into his bag sprinkling stardust as she falls asleep
                                 And I watch her fall into a sleep so deep

                                          As she dreams of kitty tease
                                    As trees, leaves move in the breeze

                                               Teddy bears dancing
                                                And Doggie barking

                                                Chasing butterflies
                                      That tantalize flying into the skies

                                                Mommy and daddy
                                    Cuddling and embracing her lovingly



                                          I sweep the toys to the side
                                  So I can have some room by her bedside



                                            Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
                                            My baby girl is a superstar

                                                       In my eyes
                                             She’s my prize I idolize

                                                    When she cries
                                  I snuggle and sing lullabies that pacifies



                                                 The window is ajar
                                         Letting moonlight in from afar

                                                She’s sound asleep
                                      In her crib  sleeping without a peep
