The Traveller and other poems

Above and Beyond (Lullaby)

Fly, little bird, fly.
Stretch your wings and soar
Above the clouds, beyond the sea.
Be brave as ne'er before.

Swim, little fish, swim.
Flick your tail and dart
Above the deep, beyond the stream.
Your wisdom to impart.

Cry, little babe, cry.
Lift your voice and call
Above the night, beyond the stars
With love to bless us all.

Dream, little one, dream.
Fill your mind, believe.
Above the doubts, beyond the fears
Your gifts you will receive.

Above, beyond
The place where dreams can soar.
