And Night Follows the Day

The Night was silly--
The silly Night
To judge His stars by Sun,
For the Day had hid
In His Glare,
Each and every one...

''Look'', said the Moon,
''We'd better not
Rush and spoil our case;
Night, you go,
I'll follow you--
Go give this Day a chase!..."

So they run--
The Day and Sun
Whilst Night and Moon, they trace;
But all in vain--
All's too sad,
For none sees others' face...
