Bending low to kiss the day.
She's so modest, timid shy,
That's her blush in the Western sky.
Deepening it lingers there,
As peeping stars come out to stare.
But even they cannot persuade
Night to raise his pulled down shade.

Eavesdropping On A Goodnight Kiss
Look at night in his suit of gray,
Bending low to kiss the day.
She's so modest, timid shy,
That's her blush in the Western sky.
Deepening it lingers there,
As peeping stars come out to stare.
But even they cannot persuade
Night to raise his pulled down shade.

Re: Eavesdropping On A Goodnight Kiss
Thanks, Travis, I'm pleased you liked it. Most of my poems are written for children, and are funny. But I do write nature poems, too, like this one. I wonder if there are any children's poets here? I'd like to connect with them and read their work and share mine with them.
