Mom's lullaby

LULLABY
From "The Mistress of the Manse"

Rockaby, lullaby, bees in the clover!
Crooning so drowsily, crying so low,
Rockaby, lullaby, dear little rover!
Down into wonderland,
Down to the under-land
Go, oh go!
Down into wonderland go!

Rockaby, lullaby, rain on the clover!
(Tears on the eyelids that waver and weep!)
Rockaby, lullaby - bending it over!
Down on the mother-world,
Down on the other world,
Sleep, oh sleep!
Down on the mother-world sleep!

Portsmouth NH

When Mom met Dad they were stationed in Portsmouth NH. Dad had an office in the prison where he provided social work services regarding navy men who had gotten into trouble. He also had a bedroom  right in the front of the prison above the entrance and there was a mess hall and other facilities there. One day Mom was visiting him there and heard a couple of trumpet calls. Finally she asked Dad what the call was for and he ran off immediately saying "riot". He had been so happy to be with Mom that he hadn't thought about the call before she said something.

Whispering Pines Girl Scout Memories "songs"

White Coral Bells White coral bells upon a slendor stalk Lillies of the vally deck my garden walk Oh, don't you wish That you could hear them ring That will happen only when the fairies sing Ash Grove Down yonder green valley Where streamlets meander When twilight is fading I pensively rove Or at the bright moontide In solitude wander Amid the dark shades Of the lonely ash grove 'Tis there where the blackbird Is cheerfully singing Each warbler enchants With his notes from the tree; Ah, then little think I Of sorrow or sadness The ash grove entrancing
