Hush

This the sweet ending of a lovely day.
The fledgling birds don't want to go to bed.
I hear them peeping in the big oak tree.
"Now hush yourselves", the mother birdie said.

"We must be up to greet the early dawn;
When God sets fire to the easterly sky.
Be there before the early worms are gone.
Now quiet down, I'll sing a lullaby."

Her sweet voice rose to lull her babes to sleep;
All night sounds stilled to hear the lovely song.
From the young birdlings not another peep,
Their mother near to guard them the night long.
