night and day

Night and Day

Night sky, sparkling stars,
Bright full moon so large and round
Jewels on velvet.

In the quiet night,
While a tired world is sleeping,
One lone night bird sings.

Fiery sun rises,
Setting horizon ablaze
A new day is born.

One small singing bird,
Sitting on a high green branch
Sings his lonely song.
