My Lullaby Poem by Christian Rivera

This is a lullaby
For all the stars up in the sky
In your brilliant lights
You give the darkness life

This is a lullaby
For those too young to wonder why
Mom and Dad can't sleep at night
Just rest your weary eyes

Just count the stars and try to find
A million more than you did last time
Don't slip through the cracks in life
Don't succumb to the stresses just like...

This is a lullaby
For all the warriors awake at night
Protecting freedoms both yours and mine
I owe them all my life

This is a lullaby
For restless souls that can't sleep tight
Eternal bliss is within the light
For you I sing tonight

I only hope to reach as high
As my wings will let me fly
To find a cloud up in the sky
And sleep well for just tonight
