A Nursery Rhyme for Shepherd
A free, original lullaby written just for the name Shepherd — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Shepherd's Starry Night
Little Shepherd, soft and small,
Hear the silver nightbirds call,
Moonbeams dance across your bed,
Starlight gently crowns your head.
Twinkling stars up in the sky,
Wave to you as breezes sigh,
Shepherd, wrapped in golden light,
Are the lanterns of the night.
Velvet darkness, deep and wide,
Holds you safe and warm inside,
Every star above will keep,
Watch o'er Shepherd, fast asleep.
