Day and Night

Looking out at the star-filled sky,

Makes me wonder how and why,

At night when hundreds of twinkling stars,

Sparkle like lightning bugs stored in glass jars.

Without the sun I can hardly see at all,

Any rock or stick could make me fall.

The sun helps us see all around,

Even tiny pebbles on the ground.

Indoors I can play without a hitch,

By turning on lights using a switch.

And should I want to sleep at day,

I'd pull the shades down all the way.

Yet, there's more world outside then there is in,

If I had to choose, guess which time win?

Nighttime is mostly for sleep, not play,

The winner I'd pick is the time called day!
