through the colours for the setting sun
watching the shadows growing longer
as trees and buildings are silhouetted
by the night that`s getting stronger

slowly the moon rises up on high
and shines so bold and brightly
the sounds of the darkness are heard
as the blackness takes over politely

Mother earth slows down to rest
after the activities of the day
time to regenerate everything
throughout the night in every way

the quiet of the night is refreshing
as the moon travels along its course
influencing all life below
our body clock to the ocean force

so as you slumber through the night
the world carries on without you
until the sun rising in the morning
shines on us the whole day through


love each day and night..!
