Monday's Child #47 ~ Picture Prompt

Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Sail us away
The time has come
To close our day
Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Fly us to dreams
The stars and moon
Are smiling it seems
Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Hold us tight
Keep us warm in
The darkness of night
Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Don't let them cry
When our Queen Mum
Waves us goodbye
At least you and I know
When midnights flow
It's time to go back
To the palace below
And Mum will be there
With her love and care
And we will all wake
With a new day to share
So rocking horse
Rocking horse
Drift us to sleep
And bring us some angels
Our souls to keep

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)
