Bless my Baby Bless My Baby Bright sets a adorable little love-note, 'The house was just twinkling in the moonlight' by Gertrude Stein for her partner Alice B. Toklas.

The house was just twinkling in the moon light,   
And inside it twinkling with delight,
Is my baby bright.
Twinkling with delight in the house twinkling   
with the moonlight,
Bless my baby bless my baby bright,
Bless my baby twinkling with delight,
In the house twinkling in the moon light,
Her hubby dear loves to cheer when he thinks
and he always thinks when he knows and he always   
knows that his blessed baby wifey is all here and he
is all hers, and sticks to her like burrs, blessed baby

Bless My Baby Bless My Baby Bright was commissioned and premiered by Sarah Dacey and Belinda Jones at Maecenas House, London, on October 3rd 2025.
