Please, Doze Away (Rondelets) Please, doze away Within your ocean’s calming state, Please, doze away Within the moon pull and the sway, The ebb and flow of water’s fate As does it in turn co-create… Please, doze away. Please, doze away As waves go crashing into mist, Please, doze away As night turns nights and day turns days And through them all you’re loved and kissed With words so soft and reminisced… Please, doze away. Please, doze away And feel the brush of winds blown past, Please, doze away And smell the scent of womb’s bouquet Till all your strength and thoughts amassed Squeezed through canal of birth have passed… Please, doze away. Please, dose away And don’t you fret this world quite yet, Please, dose away My seed, my sweet, my precious babe For only love and no regrets Embraces nature’s bassinette… Please, doze away. *For my daughter who’s 4 months pregnant.

Sounds like a lovely lullabye from a mother to a child, or a dad to his daughter, either or, as long as the love of family is what matters |

I must admit I have shied away from trying a Rondelet, and I give you high marks for this one, it is perfect. Congratulations on this poem for your daughter, it made the complicated look easy. ~*~ PMS jokes aren't funny, period. ~*~ |
