I particularly liked this lullaby as it reminded me a day in the life of a child. The colours they see, the objects they will note. The tasks they may find. and of course, sleep is a large part of the life of a baby.

Comment from Pantygynt
There was I presume some semblance of a tune in your head when you created this. I loved the words but wasn't tempted musically. I think this was probably because of the free form you are using. Of course rhyme and metre are not necessary tin a song lyric but I do find them helpful. I did like the circularity of the piece.

Thanks for reading. This contest required free verse with no rhyming patterns allowed. I love rhyme and my original poem had rhyming throughout. I changed it to be in compliance with the rules, but kept my basic thought. I don't usually enter free verse because I find it hard not to constantly rhyme.:)

A sweet and wonderful response to the writing prompt of a lullaby. I heard myself read/sing it as I looked over your words. Well-written and a great entry for the contest. I wish you lots of luck.

Comment from cupa tea
This one is pretty close to being able to sing as a song to a sleeping child. It has parts that are difficult. I like the length of the song. Lots of activities going on in your song. I'm not sure a song such as this needs that many things happening in it. But, what do I know. Good Luck!

Comment from Air Spirit
A very tender, loving and soothing lullaby for a child.. actually, I know of some adults that might enjoy having this sung to them as well.. :) your words are calming and reassuring, just what you want to offer a child who is ready for slumber.. you want their dreams to be filled with the best that life has to offer.. My favorite lines in your poem were "...Take my hand,
outside we'll play.
Blue sky above, green grass below
clouds above put on a show..." vivid, idyllic and loving.. perfect!

I think this is a good entry for the A Lullaby writing prompt.
Your short verse has a good rhythm and makes a lovely lullaby.
Well done and good luck to you with this one in the competition.
