Night-time wouldn’t show itself
Until Sunshine moved away
Like a road-way that disappears in flood
Like a child who will stray
Night-time hid away God knows where
Like a sock hides in a shoe
Not wanting to come out and play
Like when I played hide and seek with you
The pages turned as Sunshine faded
Sunset became the star
New chapter aglow, best time of day
People came from near and far
To hear and see the sweetness, cheer
Sunset brought to all
Listening for the climax
That would entice, enthrall
Sunset’s colours made the day
Surely to behold
Night-time felt alone, left out
Dark, upset, anxious, lonely, old.
