. . . The moon is astonished and so are the sheep:

Their bells have come to send you to sleep. . .

. . . Sleep little baby, clean as a nut,

Your fingers uncurl and your eyes are shut. . .

Six-year-old killed in San Francisco

At least six children were killed in shootings across the country over the holiday weekend, sparking calls from officials to end the gun violence plaguing their communities.

The children, ages 6 to 14, were all shot and killed while doing everyday things -- riding in mom's car, walking in a mall, and playing in a yard with their cousins.
