Go to Sleep, My Son

Go to sleep, my son, the cold has come to stay; dream your dreams of springtime sun while winter has its sway. Drift to lands of warmth and grace while tucked in cosy bed; my roots will hold your heart in place, so rest your weary head.

Go to sleep, my son,

the cold has come to stay;

dream your dreams of springtime sun

while winter has its sway.

Drift to lands of warmth and grace

while tucked in cosy bed;

my roots will hold your heart in place,

so rest your weary head.

    I love the whole thing, but my fave line is the 2nd to last–it grabs me.

      Thanks Kathleen! The way mothers hold their children is very like that, isn’t it?
