Lullaby For A Friend This be my song of comfort for your soul That you should slumber peacefully in dream May visions of a brighter day console This be my song of comfort for your soul I'll tend the fire and stoke the final coal And bid you sleep till moon has lost its beam This be my song of comfort for your soul That you should slumber peacefully in dream ~vlraynes "My friends are my estate." ~Emily Dickinson [This message has been edited by vlraynes (08-30-2003 05:31 AM).] |

*smile* Your friend is lucky.... I remember someone sang me to sleep once.... it's amazing what a lullaby sung by a friend can do.... *blink* I'm getting misty eyed. I swear, it's because the cat attacked my eye. Really! *smile* Once again, beautifully written, Vicky. Kielo I'll never forget you.... I know that much, despite my foolishness. |

This be my song of comfort for your soul I'll tend the fire and stoke the final coal And bid you sleep till moon has lost its beam ----------------------------------- I'm seeing this; I can see you tending the fire...stealing a glance here or there to check on the friend you send to dreamland...staying awake 'til the moon sleeps, and the friend is rested... very warm write vick.. ![]() hugs, g "They say that Anger is just Love disappointed..."
