A Cloudy Day Into Night

As the day slowly fades, turning out the lights
Laying on a "pillow" the sky beckons the night.

A long day it was, hovering over the land.
Time to trade places and enter into dreamland.

The earth whispers goodnight, carried out by the wind..
The day turns into night, as the darkness slowly descends.
