For my Lion

When I’m filled with doubt and fear,
My loved ones gather far and near,
A soft tune they start to sing,
And  in my ears it rings

To me it makes a loving sound,
It starts right there beside the ground,
Rumbles through my weary feet,
Legs and  calfs all still lie neet

Then rests  my racing heart at last,
Slow come my breathes, not too fast,
As my eyelids start to droop,
I feel warm, like chicken soup

I feel the blanket all around
The one they made with all their sound
The one that binds us kith and kin
All without, and all within
