Tender lullabies …..

​

This morning the Gayatri mantra led me back to a time I do not remember. 

​

A lullaby that has cradled my soul, perhaps since I was stardust.

​

When my children were younger I would sing them "Close to you" by the Carpenter's as their bedtime lullaby. (With some slight changes to the end of the song).

​

This past summer I was playing it on my Apple-music and my daughter said "This is a real song? I thought you made it up!"

​

We are drawn together through lullabies, music, poetry, stories, yoga. 

​

Perhaps since we were all stardust together.

​

I am grateful to be "close to you".
