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.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
