+*+*+ Hush, my darling child, It is time for you to sleep. The Sandman is on his way, As you count soft woolly sheep. A canopy of starlight, Lies above your princess bed. Angels are surrounding you, From your toes to top of head. Dream catchers neatly hanging, In front of window panes, To snatch away the nightmares, By pulling on their manes. Close your eyes and slip away, Fly with fairies on your sleeve, To castles bathed in starlight, In the lands of make believe. Hush, my darling child. It is time for you to sleep. The Sandman is on his way, As you count soft woolly sheep. +*+*+ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-11-2003 11:45 PM).] |

Q-Man ~ I do believe that I am up for the mission! Place your dentures in a white silk bag with a drawstring and put them under your pillow. Dream of gold dust and fairy rings in the forest. When you awake in the morning, your false teeth will have vanished, but the silk bag will be filled with gold fairy dust. You will then be able to afford to have dental implants! lol I'll be by when you are sweetly dreaming... EA [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-12-2003 01:46 AM).] |

Vicky ~ Yes, indeed I do know you love lullabies. In fact, is not your name synonymous with "lullaby"? Sweet dreams! Linda |

Q, you are most welcome! Now start counting woolly sheep! The Sandman is coming and he has to be gone before I get there! He's really been hitting on me! He cannot seem to get the fact into his quick-sand head, that I am an angel! EA |
