Dark nursery (Part I)

by Shelby G.   Nov 22, 2004


Hush little baby
don't say a word
even if you did
you wouldn't be heard

Twinkle twinkle little star
how i wonder what you are
are you here to dry my tears?
or are you here to wake my fears?

Jack be nimble
jack be quick
Jack, stop trying
to make me sick

row row row your boat
gentle down the stream
trying to escape the horrible sound
of my every scream

rock o' by baby
in the tree top
have you arison
to make my pain stop

rain rain go away
come again another stay
theres no reason here to stay
I have nothing left to say.

    Now this is a superb Idea. Nusery rhymes. I think you could extend it into a longer poem and elaborate on what you mean. I love it.
