The Dearest Song

Oh angel face, why so forlorn?
Oh tired eyes, I see you yawn!
You will sleep here safe tonight,
It’s time now for your moonlit flight.

An angel face with angel eyes-
Faraway to dreamland flies
Upon a softly feathered wing,
You shall not wish for anything.

Oh! that tiny angel face,
Seems so pure, so out of place,
But you’re safe here where you belong,
And you are my hearts dearest song.

    Is this an oldie or a newie? :)
    I think it’s a beautiful piece of writing!

    “You shall not wish for anything.”
    Words to remember… I ‘shall’.
