POEM STARTER
Write a poem that could be sung as a lullaby.
You could set it to the tune of an existing lullaby, or think up your own rhythm. Remember that lullabies are for children, and are ususally meant to be calming.
Whispering Petals
Hush now, darling, close your eyes,
feel the earth and hear the skies.
Deep beneath the moon’s soft glow,
tiny seeds begin to grow.
Winter fades and warmth will rise,
golden sun and gentle sighs.
Soft green buds reach through the air,
waiting for a love to care.
One by one, the petals wake,
blushing pink for love’s sweet sake.
Dew-kissed dreams and breezes light,
dancing in the silver night.
Hold this moment, pure and true,
first love blooms like morning dew.
Fragile, tender, yet so bright,
a flower kissed by dawn’s first light.
