Lullaby for a Magician’s Lady

By Stephen M. Golden

Copyright © 25 December 1988

 

Evening resting in your arms,

Take my cares away.

Time to lay the spellbooks down

yet another day.

 

Wisps of magic in the air,

Now I’m safe with you.

Spoils of conquest all around,

yet they fade from view.

 

Princess I will care for you

when the magic’s done.

Take your comfort in my arms.

Rest, my precious one.

 

Dragons come.  Dragons go.

Battle’s won.  You and I will grow.
