Sunset, all the colours,
Purple, orange, and red,
Soon it will be dark,
Time to go to bed.
Stars shining in the sky,
Tiny spots of light,
Millions of them
Out all night.
The moon is a bright circle,
Lighting up the night,
When the sun rises up
It goes out of sight.
Sunrise over the hill,
Yellow and golden,
Up in the sky
The day has just begun.
By Lauren Easter, aged 12 years.
