Creatures of the Night

Inoutspace there is no darkness,

Light is everywhere and without bounds,

And the sun goes to sleep,

While the moon rises high and shines so bright.

The sun sleeps a little tighter,

The moon rises a little higher,

Creatures awake from their rest,

From hiding places safe and deep,

Cool breezes blow, rustling leaves,

Voices of the night interweave

The moon stays up so long

its light makes it hard to sleep

The sun goes to sleep and says goodnight

The stars shine so bright

They sparkle in my eyes

They might be brighter than the moon

In the darkness of the night,

The moon goes to sleep

Her eyes shine bright,

Her light has filled the place.

Her darkness is blissful,

The dark has taken my eyesight,
