Unaware, Gentle Approach


There the shepherd boy slept, unaware, exhaustion called him to dream
She approached without any fear, knowing how deep was his sleep
For he had drunk from the magic stream, now he followed the magic gleam
And until he woke, many days later
She laid next to his body and sang
Hoping to lead him to another realm
Where he wasn't willing or able to dwell
