Lullabies Aren’t What They Seem

Up in a nest

A little bird peeps

Mama watches over

Her chicks as they sleep


Down on the floor

A fox kit dreams

Mama watches over

They sleep near the stream


In the mornin’

The birdie wakes up

Mama flies off

In search of some grub


The foxes wake too

Stifling their yawns

Mama walks off

To find food at dawn


Too hungry to wait

All on her own

The chick goes out

Away she’s flown


She finds the fox kit

Her mother’s away

She’s hungry too

The chick falls asleep;

Shuts her eyes on day
