As I lay by your side

as you gently sleep
with a lullaby

no worries of the world

you see through child
eyes

 

when you sleep don't
weep

think of castles and
kings

think of dragon and
silly things

 

as you sleep its a
wonderfully sight

with the curtain close
to keep out the day light

we are in our world
tonight

there magic in this
room a special time

it's like time has stop

hear the tickingof the
clocks

 

dream of castle and
kings

fighting dragon and
silly things

friendly monster that
don't make you cry

little funny people by
your side

my child sleep peaceful
tonight

and I see you in the
morning light

as I kiss you goodnight

may god bless tonight

How lovely to make a safe world for a child, where when night falls they can dream of wonderful things. This is magical.

Madiba (Nelson Mandela) believed the innate goodness of man, he believed that no child is born evil. He was known to love children all, as his own.

He was indeed a great man.

I love your work Maggie, so innocent and pure, sincere & Nolan
