Love-Songs of Childhood

A tender letter opens this collection, recalling the warm evenings when a beloved aunt sang the narrator to sleep. The verses flow like lullabies, each line a soft echo of childhood wonder, from poppies and fairies to the simple joy of a playful “Booh!” The poet’s language is both lyrical and mischievous, inviting listeners to drift back to the safe harbor of a rocking chair.

Within its pages you’ll find a parade of charming mini‑poems— the Rock‑a‑By Lady who tiptoes in with poppy‑crowned dreams, a garden stroll where sunbeams dance on tiny feet, and a night wind that howls a haunting “Yooooo” prompting whispered questions about mischief. The rhythm swings between gentle lullaby and bright, rollicking rhyme, capturing the delight and occasional fears of early years. Perfect for a quiet evening, these verses wrap the listener in nostalgia while celebrating the boundless imagination of childhood.
