Evening is not night
Nor is it dusk
Evening is itself
5pm to 8pm

Yes, dusk and night may overlap this time
But both man and pigs have skin
And both man and birds have feet
Why then, is evening so discreet?

Do you love your brother?
Of course, because that is the brother you know
Do you like nighttime? Good, because evening is the brother that night knows

If you appreciate dusk, you’ll definitely get along great with evening
Dusk is so nice and blue
While evening is so gray and orange
What’s not to appreciate?
Such a great color!

The time between 5 and 8 is great
So much is accomplished
Four hundred consecutive hops
And gathering hangers
Are my favorite activities during this time

I don’t think I’ve made my point, have I?
Maybe you’re not convinced
That evening is not night nor dusk,
Well to that, I must contradict!

How would you like it if someone compared you with a worm
Because both of you could wiggle
Not very much is what I assume!
So what about evening? Why is it alone?
Well I say evening is not night
And evening is not dusk
Nor the time in between
Evening is a special time

Evening is a feeling
Your brother
