MY SETTING SUN
By Amy Leskowski
It’s bedtime, Sun!
Playtime’s done.
Kisses first.
To bed, my burst.
Don’t you stall,
my energy ball!
Relax, my sphere.
No monsters here.
Please dim, my bright—
you’re bugging Night.
What now, my beam?
A gloomy dream?
I’m never far,
my shining star.
Now, dip down low.
Goodnight, my glow.
I love this idea and all the names for the sun, Amy!
Thanks, Alison!!
