Your heart beats softly in the quiet
my hand presses down
cradle the life growing
keep safe
Do not fear the morning, the light
coming
Bright in the chill, the fog over fields
Beginnings and promises
I don't know who you are yet
Laughter in your smile
Or how you'll wake from deep sleep
It's hard to tell
In the night when the house sleeps
We are learning one another
Kick and touch
lullaby and whisper your name to the moon
I'm falling in love with open eyes
