Clouds transcend
Twilight’s end
Peak-a-boo moon
Come again soon
Tucked away again
Shadows meld, blend
Sloths slumber
Sheep sleep in numbers
Babies in cradles
Horses in stables
Fall for fabled folly
Travel slumber’s trolly
Cast off by stories
Of gallant glory
Just one more
Amidst sisters snores
Neigh, now nap
Don night’s cap
Take your ticket
Do not picket
Do you hear?
The trolly is near
Cash it in
Sash’s drawn in
Now lay your head
Tucked into bed
Eyelids descend
As we meet days end
Pray souls keep
Now you sleep
Light’s cease to burn
Nocturns turn
Owls take flight
Cloaked from sight
Night shift labors
Living lore
Stories to tell
As day fells
