lullaby

play me a song on heartstrings deep
rich sound overcoming my weak body
traveling miles to the children of the oceans
penetrating to the core of the earth

sing me a song as ardent lovers do
full of the laments and joys of the world
drum beat pulsating in my weary soul
reaching out to touch the velvet sky

play me a song in the key of wonder
misty chords of fear and awe
lilting and lifting me from despair
you call this weary traveler home

dedicated to you. from me.
