My Lullaby

Submitted by Yami_no_Tenshi on June 30, 2008 - 17:03.

Cradled in your arms,
My head upon your chest,
I hear your heartbeat,
Strong and steady.
I listen to your breathing,
Slow and deep.
Listening to the rhythm of your heart,
Coupled with your breaths,
It never fails to lull me
Into a deep, peaceful sleep.

Bluebird: A lullaby

Bluebird
Bluebird
Born on the wind,
Bring me a message from heaven.
Bluebird
Bluebird
Colored so bright,
Why don’t you rest here for the night?

You have traveled so long,
And have come from afar,
Rest your tired wings here for the night,
You have flown among the fluffy clouds,
And the twinkling stars,
Along your breathtaking flight.

Bluebird
Bluebird
Born on the wind,
