A Child

 

Let your thoughts float away like clouds

Just you

Looking up from the ground

When you were just a child

It was magic

With dreams of riding the wind

Beyond the tree tops

And up, up, over your town

Hang on to that moment of freedom

Just you

Your dreams

And the clouds.

The Red Pajamas

 

Little red satin pajamas

So silky & soft

Just like my Grandmother's love

They cover and comfort me

While I sleep

Dreaming of a magical world

Only in the mind of a hopeful child

Healing and caressing

the voices

Where pain has no rest.
