Little Shepherd Boy

Someone long ago wanted me to write a lullaby for her. I thought it would be interesting to try so I did it. I have redone this poem with GIFs. If it's too much, let me know.

Little Shepherd Boy why do you cry?

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy please don't whine

as I sing to you this lullaby.

 

Little Shepherd Boy please oh please

sleep and dream for me.

Little Shepherd Boy please oh please

sleep and dream for me.

 

Little Shepherd Boy why do you cry?

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy please don't whine

as I sing to you this little lullaby.

 

 Little Shepherd Boy why do you weep?

Can’t you see how serene it may be?

Little Shepherd Boy let it be seen

That at this time it’s just you and me.

 

Little Shepherd Boy please oh please

sleep and dream for me for me.

Little Shepherd Boy please oh please

sleep and dream for me for me.

Little Shepherd Boy can’t you see?

There’s nothing here to cause your screams.

This world is as vast as the sea.

 Nothing here will wake you from your dreams.

Little Shepherd Boy why do you cry?

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy please don't whine,

and I sing to you this little lullaby.

Little Shepherd Boy I love you.

I see your wonderful soul in your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy all loves you too.

 All see your wonderful soul in your eyes.

 

Little Shepherd Boy why do you cry?

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy please don't whine

as I sing to you this lullaby.

 Little Shepherd Boy this lullaby must end

So that your wonderful dreams can begin.

Little Shepherd Boy this is the end

As I sing you this little lullaby.

Little Shepherd Boy why do you cry?

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

Little Shepherd Boy please don't whine

as I sing to you this lullaby.

 

 

Author's Note

That was a lot of repetition, but thanks to the comments, I do believe I fixed this.

None of the pictures from this poem or any of my other writings are mine unless said otherwise.

Have to agree about the repition but think if you started out well. I'm not a critic or a Poet I just know what I like. Maybe if you came up with a different verse or two to replace or add it would work out better. Smiles for making the effort I think that was great of you. :)
