Sleep now
Little earth
Before the moment
Of new and wondrous birth

Slumber sweet
‘Neath veil of white
We will endure
Through this darkest night

Quiet wait
Till the new year morn
Something precious
Will be surely born

Sleep now
Little earth
Before the moment
Of new and wondrous birth

    Spoken as if she is not down under sweating from the heat. Enjoyed it.
