sweet sugar plum dreams
in delicate baby's head
lollypop trees
this baby sees
and scribbles of ebony and blue for an infant sky
in this darling's crib
precious child of the eve
my o so little dear

through nights; ambling
with only thee in my breath heart and mind
this sweet madonna, misty twilight
renders incognito the molasses night
and does cover thee well
how long does this simple bliss last?
until the change of us all
till death do us part
my saving cloak
be ever dark

Silvery sliver
nearly translucent
crystal clear enough for me
to be all too able to see
no second sight needed;
I will call you from the moon
