Lullaby Poem by Rasaq Malik

On my back,
I heard a voice,
An infant voice indeed,
Clinging on my flesh to breastfeed,
Toes on movement,
For the lullaby song,
Head dancing,
To rhythm of a nature song,
To a nature being,
Mouth open,
Flowing to praise the singing voice,
of my nature being,
Hold firmly with a bygone thread,
The sweetness of a golden mother,
A seasonless hour passing by,
Eyes open to nurse the infant cry,
Lullaby, the echo was heard,
Firing into abode of sleepless night......
