Day 7 — TC McCracken: Zizzzzzzzz … says Mom

Dedicated to Melina, mother of the pajama monster that giggles when she brushes her teeth,

and to all hugging little toddlers in a pandemic. 

May the rhythm be restored to your yesterdays.

I hope you and perhaps mother Earth get a rest 

and some extra love during this worldly interlude.

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces

Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right — The Beatles
