After the end of a dark night

Comes the gentle morning light.

The sun’s warmth feels like a shower,

Unlike midday rays that overpower.

I can enjoy exposure without concern,

Without risking any pesky sunburn.

It’s a peaceful, pleasant way 

To get going and start my day.

Good night, Paul, good night.
Time to turn out the light.
As you sleep tight,
I wish you sweet dreams.
In the glow of moonbeams,
May pleasant be the themes
Of the scenes in your mind.
As sleep helps you unwind,
Relaxation is assigned.
