The Lullaby
- “As far the waters flow, is as far as my love goes,
- From the mountains to rivers below,
- Is as far as my love goes,
- Even heaven knows how far my love goes,
- As far as the winds may blow, is as far as my love goes,
- From every flake of snow that falls to the forest below, is how deep my love goes,
- How deep my love goes,
- Even the roots that go far below, are as deep as my love goes,
- Even heaven knows how far my love goes,
- As clear as the morning light, from the stars up in the sky,
- Is my love shining in your eyes, shining in your eyes,
- Forever my love will grow, for you dear one, I know,
- From the mountains covered in snow as far as the valleys below,
- Is far as my love will grow, for you dear one, I know,
- Even heaven knows how far my love grows, for you dear one, I know,
- For you dear, I know,
- As far as the waters flow, is as far as my love goes.”
Beautiful imagery, and i can
Beautiful imagery, and i can see it as a song too
My mother was a rainbow
My father turned her grey
they loved me like a sky lantern
they watched me fly away
Exquisitely beautiful
The repetition of the long O sound is well deployed and gives a structural unity to the poem. This is splendid work.
