Rockabye

Rockabye baby,
Rockabye blue,
Rockabye baby
All the night through~

Rockabye lashes
Fluttering oft,
Rockabye little lips
Pouting and soft~

Rockabye cheeks
All rosy and round,
Rockabye wand'ring dreams
floating around~

Rockabye tummy,
That tumbling affair,
Rockabye whisps
Of lightly curled hair~

Rockaby pudgy legs,
Tickley toes,
Rockabye fingers
And pink button nose~

Rockabye bunny,
Snuggle you tight,
Rockabye baby
And kiss you goodnight~

Time

Oh let her stay little
A little bit longer,
Oh let her stay little,
My Love ~
Oh let her stay little
A little bit longer,
The babe of my bosom,
My Dove ~

My Valentinies



I have three Valentinies,
There’s Wise One,
Little Bird,
And Tippy Toes ~

Oh she’s into the cupboards; she’s into the drawers,
She scatters her cheerios over the floors,
Yes, she’s an explorer,
My sweet Tippy toes,
With her pink laughing cheeks
And her button nose ~
Tippy toes giggles
At ev-er-y-thing,
Her toys, a balloon,
When her big sister sings ~
I snuggle sweet Tippy Toes
Close to me each night,
She’s cuddly, tickly,
Sweet grin delight ~

And then there is Little Bird,
Fawn eyes round and dark,
She’s shy, gentle, quiet,
And soft as a lark,
But when we’re at home
She is silly as can be!
A hysterical giggle of cuteness, you see ~
She dances and jumps
And has Princess Dreams
And is just as strawberry sweet as she seems ~

Wise One’s a tumble
Of colors and words,
A bright blur of twirling skirts
And bouncing blonde curls ~
Always jumping or skipping,
She’s most likely to fall,
But when talking,
You’ll soon find
That she knows it all! ~
She’ll pause for a peck
Or a hug round the waist,
She loves her special treats
And must get a taste! ~

So you see each Valentiny
Is sweet in her own way,
And I’m so thankful to have
These three Valentinies
Here with me today! ~
