It's nice to see the speaker has several friends out there in space, the Sun and the Moon.
It's interesting that the sun is a female, but Moon does not appear to have a gender.
I like how Moon becomes his "night light."
A warm feeling comes through here as the child feels comfort in Moon's presence.

Hi...well since I am pretty much an insomniac, this poem hits the spot. I actually like the moon better than the sun...but only in summer when the air is warm...
I light the night light images...

Brooke, I am a huge fan of the moon, the magic it shares and the mystery of its glow... Wow, great poem! Loved the rhymes and your taking us through the course of 24 hrs with mention of the moon and sun. This poem sounds great read aloud with the alliteration and quick lines.
Thanks for sharing this with me.

Hi Brooke :)
Another beautifully simple and perfect presentation.
I love your personification of the moon and sun - both being friend, companion and guide at their given time.
Thank you so much for sharing this. Absolutely lovely.
Kindest regards as always, Debra :)

Awww this was berry cute Brookers and I just love your take on the moon and sun and the partnership you share with each of them at their respective "show times". LOL They do sound as though they are the perfect companion when expressed like this. Expertly handled as always with minimum word count and MAXIMUM impact.
Oh how I envy thou! LOL
Can't WAIT for the long awaited children's book. I WILL be purchsing one for my kids. Just DON'T leave it till they've left home, okay?? LOL
So when was that publishing date?

Simplistic, sweet, scenario's for the moon. Fondness expressed for this gentle light that has been the center of attention all over the world.

good rhyming and great flow

It almost becomes tedious to come up with new adjectives to show appreciation for your smooth poetry. They are complex without being difficult, smooth without being dull, elegant without being overly flamboyant. Thanks again.

I like this poem. Its use of personification is notable and great. The rhyme and rhythm, although not maintained
throughout, is pretty. It flowed freely. The picture presented is varied, keen, and lovely. I read the poem aloud and the sound is admirable. Thanks for sharing.

I do love the sun, but the night sky is so special to me and the beauty of the night. Your artwork is stunning, and of course you know your poetic devices are always stellar.
Smiles,
Karyn :-)
