There was a horse shoe over the door in my childhood home. This new poem of yours feels like it would make a good lullabye, Trudi. It's beautiful! xo

Ahh! It protected you from the faeries! (The tricky ones). I thought it was a lullaby, too. I need a tune!✨

You need to collaborate next with a musician!

I can feel the intensity of watching over our children, protecting them from harm. Sometimes, we fear it’s never enough for this world. Thank you, Trudi🧚‍♂️

You're absolutely right, Jo-Ann - we can never fully protect them, although we try.🙏✨

Jo-Ann Petrarca's avatar

We surely do🙏

Oh Trudi, this is lovely. The only thing that could make it better is a melody to accompany your loving words. Please tell me you are working on the music!!

Trudi Nicola's avatar

I'm delighted you think so, C.J! I wish I could work on music but that's not my area at all!✨🧚

Julia - thank you! I have had the idea of this dancing in my heart for a while. I'm so glad you like it🙏💞

Loss danced with me in this lullaby. Hope and tension in a constant dialogue. So beautiful.

Trudi Nicola's avatar

That's so interesting, Rolando. I can see that tension, too. The fear and confidence of a mother protecting her child. Thank you!✨
