A Lullaby, by Request

when it comes
to loving one
little one, I love you
little one, I love you

you have yet
to begin
I will help you through
I will help you through

fly with me….
climb this tree
seek the stars
and you'll…
go far…

when it comes
to loving one
little one, I love you
little one, I love you

you have yet
to start your run
I will help you through
I will help you through

and we'll fly
climb those trees
scratch our knees
and we'll…
go far…

when it comes
to loving one…
little one…
I love you…
little one…
I love you…

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

I almost fell asleep because of its soothingness; not of its words. I can hear it singing in my room now   Thanks for the wonderful read.

Oh Karilea ~ This is just so precious.  This should be the song in every mother's heart.  And what a heart you have...

Take care,
Melissa

I hope DP does set this to music - and I hope to see or hear it - it is truly a lovely lullaby

Yeppers.......this one will work alright.  Very peaceful indeed.  Bet some babys will find some dreams in this one.

Sunshine,

Beautiful and comforting.  I can hear it now.  Very nice.
