Hush, Little One

(Nadine Strydom)

The typical setting, of dealing with a child's fear, yet facing the child with harsh reality. Giving through some hope, and yet not too hopeful.

Quiet as the wind slow falls,
To the inside darkness crawls.
Casting shadows long and deep,
Sending children all to sleep.

Hush, little one, please don't cry.
For in the end we're all to die.
Send yourself to blissful dream,
So you won't hear them scream.

But beware for in the twilight, ever true,
A darkness will be watching you.
And if you move one way too fast,
Said movement might be your last.

Hush now child, don't yell so loud.
You should stand tall and be proud.
For you have won the battle, yes,
But lost the war nonetheless.

Quiet in the break of dawn,
A new kind will soon be spawn'.
And in the setting of the night,
The fear in you takes flight.
