Lullaby for Batliboi

There's a girl i know
Cool as snow
She runs through the day
She's made of clay
Her form magnificent
Her laughter consistent
I write a lullaby for this child
Who's heart is wild
She's a thinker this one
Oodles of fun

Big girl pants
She lives in the city
Has big plans
All bundled up in her kitty
Creative perhaps
But in between naps
I wonder when she dreams
Is the world more magical
When she wakes up...is it an escape..a sabbatical ?

Perhaps she's free at mind
But what of heart?
There's been more to the girl right from the start
She moves on a different plane
Her rhythm is new
Not many can keep up, only a few.
She looks great in shades
She calls a spade a spade
She's funny to the bone
Humor in the zone

I could tell she's a spitfire
A free spirit or longing to be
But perhaps thats not for us to know...not for us to see
So i close the door behind me
As she shuts her eyes gently
A whole day ahead of her
A world of possibility
But tonight she rests
And dreams of the best
And as a smile spreads across her face
The curtains flutter..to keep pace.

And in the silence of the night
She becomes one , at peace .
What a sight :)



Because I promised I would :)
