BY FIONA CUMMINGS  
Tiny little fingers
Wrapping around mine 
A squishy button nose 
In your cot of pine
Cheeky chops giggling 
Peepers getting tired 
Little legs riggling  
So sweet only to be admired 
Blowing bubbles 
Full of trouble 
Wrapped in a blanket
With a teddy to cuddle 
I sing to you 
As your eyes of blue
Begin to close 
So beautiful 
Mouth like a rose 
Cute little dimples
Your age is so simple  
You sleep I hope dreaming 
In nursery slumber 
Away from winds and thunder
Just rainbows and smile sunsets 
Flying on clouds of magical carpets 
Over the lambs lolloping on the land 
Lolly pop trees 
Sweet singing blackbirds 
And bumblebees 
Dream little Darling one
And when you awake 
Know you will never be a lone 
Make no mistake
I shall be by your side 
Kiss your tears that have cried 
Put a smile back on your face 
If your night is disturbed 
And a shadow gives you chase 
Know I will make you safe 
This is a loving place 
Where you never need to fear 
I will wipe away 
Your tiny silver tear 
When morning wakes up
And the dawn dew surrounds the butter cup
And the chorus sings for breakfast 
Together you and I shall have a feast
A pot of porridge 
And a dippy egg with soldiers 
Then out for the day in your carriage 
To feed the ducklings on the pond 
I love to see 
Just how you respond 
You’re so inquisitive 
Fill my days with delight 
Make me glad to live
You are so bright 
Like the stars at night
Always free with love
And for that I give thanks to above 
For whoever created you
Chose me to love you
To hold you 
To teach you
To protect you
So you see wonders 
With your eyes of blue
Little sleeping angel
How I so adore you
