Say goodbye
to the day –
it was only a day anyway.
we have tonight,
with the moon –
remember?
Don’t close your eyes yet;
the crickets have just started singing
and the stars have brought out their best
just for you.
Say hello
to the whisper of the night,
the chill of the air;
the fireflies were waiting
for you –
remember?
Run barefoot in the dew-drop grass,
forget about the sun and her stress –
this is tonight,
not today.
