half glass of optimism
emptied out dark side
a man and woman in smile

Sleepy Child Lullaby

Pull your blanket up my child
I know you are so very tired
Let momma tuck you in to dream
Of running free in meadows green

Look down from the big blue sky.
Let the beauty catch your eye.
Sing praises from heaven high. 
Give soul to your lullaby.

a lullaby as leaves fall
into autumn’s rest
snow will soon blanket all things
in coziness until spring

Now I lay me down to sleep
A band of angels at my feet
with a heavenly choir singing along
to guide them in their mirthful song

Redbird and the blue,
lend songs while I'm still abed.
Dark lullabies, too!
Beautiful visitors come,

Close Your Eyes

Close your eyes
Close them tight
Let us get to
Sleep tonight
Hold them, hold them
Hold them tight
Let us get to
Sleep tonight

Lullaby

My grandmother's voice
Contained her grandmother's voice,
An ancient lullaby.
The Yosemite Valley
Took million of years to form.

Winter

Winter flows down mountain slopes,
beneath a mantle of mist,
whispers a soft lullaby,
while trees dream of spring.

The Piano

life is a piano

white days near black days

hot fingers
cold fingers

the death
always in the background
murmuring a lullaby

Mine

And in the cold winter rain
I keep you in my heart in frame.
A few steps back from this closed door,
You will be mine forever more.

God's Lullaby

hush whirring worries
let calm and faith take over
cradled in God's arms...

Lullaby

Let the world turn out right
As I say 'good night'
Let news tomorrow be great
And clear all slates
Forgive and forget
Never regret
Form: Lyric

A Morning, This Morning

I woke up one morning, this morning,
So dull it was like a lame forest.
A bird hooted and hooted
And it sounded more like a lullaby.

Flutes of green bamboo;

Sleep's the only escape he delights in.
A lullaby eases his pain.
Please dont wake him, let him sleep.

Sing To Me

sing to me, windchimes
of eventide's lullaby
beneath dim shadows

when dragonflies reel
farther from the horizon
my soul needs music
