Lullaby Poem by Isabel Lavender

Life is like a lullaby sweet and happy never sour
lust and greed oh only admit in your last hour
light up my dear open up those sweet eyes
why can't you see ignorance is no device

louder my dear lets run away
hush hush sweetie you say

The Emperors' new clothes a story so very true
why does facing the truth make you baby blue
just take my hand and I will lead you so astray
but honey please don't convert for me to stay

babe in the day and the night
hush hush let me say it right

blindfolded leading you to the promised land
when you get tired wiping little eyes of sand
stand up strong as a proper man my dear
if you follow me little soldier nothing to fear

my gentle giant don't speak
hush hush you make me weak

(Dedicated to all the great males in my life)
