Mrs. Potter's Lullaby

Based on a song by Adam Duritz

A cloak of stars covers me in my bed,
easing me into delightful dreams
as they glisten and twinkle
and giggle happily all night long.

A strange image arises in my mind
of the beautiful night sky,
encompassing nothingness
as its babies are with me.

The stars comfort me
in my time of distress,
swathing me in a soft blanket,
 reassuring me of a peaceful night ahead.
