The sun slides down into the night
Away to rest her weary eyes
Shadows creep forward
Like ghosts dancing on the moon
Embers from the fire crackle and pop
Floating up towards the stars
As if they are trying to go home
A cool breeze flirts by
Whispering the secrets of the night
To anyone who will listen
The sun peeks over the horizon
And winks at the moon
Stardust falls to the earth
Echoing like laughter on canyon walls
All is right
Good morning sun
Good night moon
Sleep well
