Lay down

            to Brian & Michael
         (the reason i was born)        

lay down
my weary child
rest that head of wonder
I shall keep you safe and warm
as you sweetly slumber
and as you sleep this promise keep
while you lay beneath the starry sash
the dream queen will kiss each and every lash
where angel wings
bring sweet dreams
of flying things
dancing on moonbeams
sand castles in the snow
where you can only tell me of
and only you can go
a mother's wish
bliss fullness
go softly as you flow
