Smooth away trouble; and the rough male kiss
Of blankets.

A chamber deaf to noise, and blind to light,
A rosy garland and a weary head.

Claim a foe, or hail a friend--

Daddy built it out of pine two days before the wedding
They say the neighbors cheered and hollered till his face got red
And mama brought the feather pillows and some handmade bedding
And they spent their wedding night in that big four poster bed
That night they swore like that bed their love would last forever
And they'd ask no more of life than the simple things they had
So they planed there future as they laid close together
And later I was born there in that big four poster bed
