Come little children,
I'll take thee away,
Into a land of enchantment.
Come little children,
The time's come to play,
Here in my garden of shadows.

Follow sweet children,
I'll show thee the way,
Through all the pain,
And the sorrows.
Weep not poor children,
For life is this way,
Murdering beauty and passions.

Hush now dear children,
It must be this way,
Too weary of life,
And deceptions.
Rest now my children,
For soon we'll away,
Into the calm and the quiet.

-Come Little Children
Hocus Pocus

"The stress mounts as her belly
swells with child,Ada."Legolas
said in a hushed tones outside the kings chambers,"-is another
venture advisable?"

"Listen to these words, Legolas.
For they will serve you well. Happy wife,happy life.Let that
resonate,for no truer words were
ever spoken."

"You sound more like her everyday,as she does you."

"As it should be,for she is the blood coursing through my veins.
Becoming as one more so every
moment.I never imagined...well,
to find this once more-"the kings
voice trailed off,fearing he'd said too much.

"I understand,father.",neither looked each other in the eye,"I've
always felt the love you had for my mother."

"That loss was nearly my undoing."the king said,in practically a whisper,"-so much I would change.Would I could.So
much left...unsaid."

Legolas placed a comforting hand on his father's shoulder.

"Mother knew,Ada.She knew in her soul.Felt your love every moment."

The was the most Legolas had ever heard his father speak of his mother.It moved him beyond
words.

I awoke gasping to get air in my lungs,that eerie song still playing
in my head.

Thranduil burst in the door,
followed by Legolas,holding his
sweet newborn in his arms.

"My love,are you well?"my husband asked, immediately at my side,"-I heard you cry out."

Did I?I don't recall it?

I touched my tearstained cheek.

I was crying?

Yes,little dove.Another nightmare?
