Nighttime Gifts
The sun is setting in the sky
Another day has passed by
Colors purple, blue and crimson red
Can be seen above your head
The moon and stars soon will shine
Romantic darkness how divine
A nighttime symphony of bug & bird
A hooting owl can be heard
Fires burn at all the camps
Lightening bugs have little lamps
People talking without a care
The sound of nighttime in the air
Wonderful things come out at night
Things that scare you without light
Are really gifts from up above
Sent down here for us to love
