lullaby

Several notes strung together
Carefully placed one after another
Forming the melody of a song
Created to put me to sleep, a lullaby

While I play with words, notes are your plaything
Making incredible music to put me to sleep
You are born with a gift
I can only dream to half achieve

I have fitfully slumbered
Before the discovery of your sweet lullaby
But now that it found its way to me
I can always count on a dreamless sleep

resonance

A word whispered, murmured
My voice travels the atmosphere
Sound waves rolling over and over
To where you could be.

A beat of my heart felt
Thump-thumping it goes
Echoing through space
To where you could be.

The sigh from my lips
Drawn from inside me
Carried by the wind
To where you could be.
