Night

The stars are striving to keep the moon afloat, 
The sound of silent darkness playing its game. 
The owls and bats are out on a hunting spree, 
the world covertly rendered light free. 
A flickering lantern striving to be the sun, 
Baffled how night has turned it into one!

I'm surprised no one commented, this is quite well expressed.
