Matthew's Song

When Matthew was 9 months old I took a trip back to Maine to see my parents. On the way we had a lay over in one of the airports and I started making up a song to sing to him when he got cranky. I still sing it to him once in a while and recently he wanted to make up more words. This is what we have so far.

Matthew's Song:
Oh my darling Matthew,
Oh my darling Matthew,
What have you to say to me?

Tell me about the sun rise,
tell me about the moon rise,
tell me about the stars in the sky.

Oh my darling Matthew,
Oh my darling Matthew,
What have you to say to me?

Tell me about the snowflakes,
tell me the path the stream takes,
tumbling from mountains high.

Oh my darling Matthew,
Oh my darling Matthew,
What have you to say to me?

Tell me about the rainbow,
tell me about the deep hole,
in the ocean blue and wide.

I've been rocking him at bedtime and we've been making up more lines. We'll have to see where it goes next.
