Eavesdropping On a Goodnight Kiss

See night in his suit of gray, bending low to kiss the day. She's so modest, timid, shy, that's her blush in the Western sky. Deepening it lingers there as peeping stars come out to stare. But even they cannot persuade night to raise his pulled down shade. ______________________________ For any old poem contest #6 by SKAT A written sometime in 2014
