Aurora’s Sleeping
Posted on June 24, 2016
A few years ago, I was over at the house of two of my best friends and favorite people in the world, Brian and Akasha. I grabbed a guitar that was sitting around the house and just started making up songs. Akasha fell asleep on the floor (falling asleep is kind of her thing) and Brian and I continued to make up up silly songs. At one point we sang what must have been a 20 minute song all about Akasha sleeping. I actually thought it was kind of a catchy tune.
So on the occasion of the birth of their first child, Aurora, I thought I’d take that tune and write new lyrics. Congratulations, Aurora, Brian and Akasha!
Hello, Aurora, wonderful girl.
You couldn’t ask for better parents in this world.
In fact they are so awesome that it almost makes me hurl.Mom is so beautiful. Talented too.
Dad has the biggest heart and a mind to match, it’s true.
No matter what he’ll always be a bigger kid than you.Aurora’s sleeping.
Aurora’s sleeping.
Aurora’s sleeping.
Aurora’s sleeping.
Aurora’s sleeping,
So don’t sing too loud or you might wake her up!
I’m Brian’s Aunt Kathy & I must say your song brought me to tears, happy tears. Yes, Brian will always be childlike. Thank God for that.
Thanks so much for the sweet comment!
May Aurora be surrounded by music and art and beauty for her entire life!
