THE NIGHT QUEEN’S LULLABY Grandmother Owl, please tell me a tale. I will, dear one, while the moon rises pale. Beware of the fox who reveals his art. He’ll show you his smile then go straight for your heart. Mother Wren, please put me to bed. I will, dear one, while the fire goes dead. Beware of your face that’s reflected in dreams. It is an illusion and not what it seems. Sister Raven, please wake me at dawn. I can’t, dear one, for I will be gone. Beware of the world that is hiding in light. Stretch out your black wings and fly back to the night.
