What do you think this poem is about?

A mothers lullaby

Shadows whisper in the dark of the night
Babies cry out in fright
They are afraid and only one thing
will wisk it all away.

A mothers lullaby,
sung in sweet whispers.

A mothers lullaby
Accompanied by the rocking chair.

A mothers lullaby
as loving as can be.
It scares away the nightmares
Makes the path for dreams to come easily

A Mothers Lullaby...

    HI Ashley
    This is penned with so much tenderness and security that only comes from a mother's quiet soft voice that is either instilled in all of us, or for some the absence of it, which can bring many perplexing emotions, I enjoyed this as it represents all that a mother can do for her children to make them who they are today...... Enjoyed very much and hope you are doing well...

    The sentiments of a parent are highlighted here in all dexterity and your skill of saying so much in such few words is amazing. ARya

    I bet Peerbocus really liked this one. I sure did as well. This is a 10.
    It is a 10 because it is a poem that is as simple and directed as all great things
    are at their core. I hope other readers will take note of this poem. It is a great
    learning tool.
