Close your eyes and peaceful be
night has fallen
Starry hosts from heavens far
send their light.
In the stillness rest is found;
cares are gone.
Dreams to carry you from bed
to ventures far.
Sleep my sweet with cherry lips;
from song and play
Find in quiet, warm and love,
'til light of day.
As I rocked my little fairy to sleep tonight this little poem came to be. I hummed a little tune and the words fell from my tongue in time to the music. She fell asleep and I darted out to write down the words before I forgot them.
