Those lights, they swim and float gently in an infinite pool of darkness , They call the lights 'stars' and the pool the 'night sky', I see their eyes blinking at me, trying to hum a lullaby for me, they twirl and swirl and dance to the music of the owl and the wind. A white crescent hangs high above, Giving the earth a pleasure glow, she knew what darkness might bring, so she gifted us a show, Of casted shadows over the tall trees, where ocean tide crawls on the beach, and mere mysteries of stolen jewelry, all but a show, all but a show. So now goodnight, my child, let the crescent moon tuck you in, with her light upon you, and the stars above you. Good night, my child, goodbye.

Goodnight, My Child
Those lights, they swim and float gently in an infinite pool of darkness , They call the lights 'stars' and the pool the 'night sky', I see their eyes blinking at me, trying to hum a lullaby for me, they twirl and swirl and dance to the music of the owl and the wind. A white crescent hangs high above, Giving the earth a pleasure glow, she knew what darkness might bring, so she gifted us a show, Of casted shadows over the tall trees, where ocean tide crawls on the beach, and mere mysteries of stolen jewelry, all but a show, all but a show. So now goodnight, my child, let the crescent moon tuck you in, with her light upon you, and the stars above you. Good night, my child, goodbye.
"Night skies are a dear thing, a potrait of loneliness and mere flaw, but they gifted us lights and a crescent, gratefully."
