Hush Now Child

Hush now child
don't say a word
because if you do
you wont be heard

So shush now child
lay down your head
shut your eyes 
in your soft bed

So sleep now child 
hide from the sun
dance with the moon
your day is done

Hush now child
don't say a word
lay down your head now
forget it hurts.

Ghost

A knife's edge and a painful cry.
flashes in my mindful eye.
A cry for help. a plea for mercy.
I stand there and watch.
Yet im miles away.
So close, yet so far
My mind in turmoil. 
Blood falls, drop by drop
Staining hells depth....

Hush Now

Hush now child
Don’t say a word
Lay down your head now
Forget it hurts
Sleep now child
Hide from the sun
Dance with the moon
Your day is done 
The bird has flown
Your mind is strong
Let the blossoms fall
All as one

Mountain

The mountain stands.
so tall and high.
Silhouetted by the morning sky.
Children laugh.
Children play.
Travellers go on their way.
Clouds gather at its peak .
Golden treasure is what they seek.
As it moves at the dawn.
The glorious sun and the mountain.
Below.
