"Sleep Tonight,
And May Your Dreams Be Realised"
Sleep Now
ππ³ππ«ππ«ππ³π
The Night Is Here, The Moon And Stars Are Shining
All Is Quiet There's Not A Sound To Be Heard
Mystic White Hare O'er The Treetops Is Flying
πβ¨πβ¨π
Mother And Her Leveret Sleep Safely There
Her Warm Burrow For Them In This Quiet Night
This Is Their Home Where Comfort And Love They Share
ππ«ππ«π
At Break Of Day, They Wake To The First Sunlight
And Will Run Over Land And Under The Trees
Returning Later To Disappear From Sight
ππ³ππ³π
When The Hare And Her Child Are There, No One Sees
Their Burrow Is The Place Where Rest They Will Take
A Caring Mother Is Whom Gaia Does See
πππππ
The Mystic White Hare Flying, Stars In Her Wake
Mother And Child In The Burrow, Sleeping, Safe

Off the Book
It ended like every other stupid idea. Badly, and alone. Iβm researching digital confession ethics, he said. A tech ethicist. He gestured at floating data I couldnβt see then pulled out a physical notebook. Actual paper, fountain pen. He held it up like he was showing me scripture.

A very pretty piece, Mike <3
This one is dream inspired and one that describes a mother's love. Good job.
This is absolutely enchanting.
