Lullaby

Lullaby

A Poem by Blue Ivory

Lullaby

 

Rest your head upon my valley

And let your tears be my stream

Let this lullaby be the whistling wind

And carry you into a gentle dream

 

                 Rise,

Feel the                             Feel the

                                                          Fall

Just like motion of the waves

Feel the earth beneath this grass

Warm and nice like a summer’s day

 

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

This world is reeling slowwwlyyyyy...

Like a crib rocking by itself

 

I’ll tell the birds to sing tomorrow

Stop all noise

So you can sleep peacefully

 

Lalalalalalalalalala...

This dizziness will stop

If you just hold on to me...

 

 

Rockaby  baby

Whoa... cool effect. Reading these words I felt the room reel slowly past the screen of my computer, did you mean to do that? Second stanza starting with Rise, I actually think I breathed in rhythm with the words. Ha, the poem must've hypnotized me or something with the long drawn out words and the fonts, and I'm really not kidding about this! Dizzying. The title of Lullaby is definitely suitable. :)

This is amazing, I felt so light, and peaceful after reading... Softly breeze of words, and nature. Perfectly expressed, and rich imagery.

Wow, just incredible, unique and dreamy. Everything from the font to the layout on the page to the soft sweet words. This is one of those poems you forget your reading till you snapped back to reality after you've finished the final word.
