Lullaby

On sailboats
we glissade —
ceasing all activity

from choppy shores
to tranquil waters
that ripple to
simplicity.

Boundlessly

we float,

we rest
in loving
kindness.

Breathing in the
softened skies

we welcome
ocean’s lullabies.

Today I wanted to create a special recording project for my friends and family who just had babies or are expecting very soon. During these times I find great comfort in music, especially singing lullabies. My favorite lullaby of all time is Billy Joel’s “Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)”, which he wrote in 1993 for his then 7 yr old daughter, Alexa. It is truly one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard and I have always wanted to do a cover of it. I hope you will enjoy the finished product for you and any little ones in your lives 💗
